Seth Lakeman - Portrait of My Wife Lyrics
Official




In vain, I try to dry a tear which falls down from my eyes
It makes me think of the one I love who in the cold grave lies
My heart is very sad, I vow on thing cheers me through my life
The only merit I have left, the portrait of my wife

Roll away those lonely days, roll from up above
Raise your glass to the one you love
Roll away those lonely days, roll from up above
Raise your glass to the one you love

She gave it with the parting kiss, she gave it with a sigh
And said "Dear husband, do take this before I say goodbye"
And let me place it round your neck while I've got one breath of life
And I hope you'll never once forget, this portrait of your wife

Roll away those empty days, roll from up above
Raise your glass to the one you love
Roll away those empty days, roll from up above
Raise your glass to the one you love

I see her in my dreams at night, I think of her by day
To me she was an angel bright, but now she's far away
I wear her portrait near my heart, I'll treasure it through life
And with it, I will never part his portrait of my wife

Roll away those hollow days, roll from up above
Raise your glass to the one you love
Roll away those hollow days, roll from up above
Raise your glass to the one you love
