High Noon (Do Not Forsake Me)

Frankie Laine

Lyrics

Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin'

On this, our weddin' day

Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin'

Wait, wait along

I do not know what fate awaits me

I only know I must be brave

And I must face a man who hates me

Or lie a coward, a craven coward

Or lie a coward in my grave

Oh, to be torn 'tweenst love and duty

Supposin' I lose my fair-haired beauty

Look at that big hand move along

Nearin' high noon

He made a vow while in state prison

Vowed it would be my life or his, and

I'm not afraid of death, but, oh

What will I do if you leave me?

Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin'

You made that promise as a bride

Do not forsake me, oh, my darlin'

Although you're grievin', don't think of leavin'

Now that I need you by my side

Wait along (wait along), wait along

Wait along, wait along (wait along, wait along, wait along, wait along, wait along)
