Goodnight, my love (a dirge)

Goodnight, my love
I'll miss you
your spirit in the skies
but I know you're with me
when I close my eyes

Goodnight, my love
and thank you
for the time you spent with me
looking in my eyes in the afternoon
with our child on my knee

Goodnight, my love
and God bless
O how I love you so
even if you lived a thousand years
you could never truly know

Goodnight, my love
and so long
so long and see you soon
I will meet you in the spring-time fields
when the blossoms bloom

when the blossoms bloom
