Oh my darling Clementine, How could I leave while you were sleeping? Oh my darling Clementine, I couldn't bear to hear you weeping. You tried to teach me right from wrong, And you tried to burn off all my bad ways. But misery's a stubborn friend, And she persists, in spite of good days. So I sailed from your white sands, On a ship of broken plans. And your face was on my mind, Oh my darling Clementine. Oh my lovely Clementine, iI's such a hell to be without you. My soul tormented every night, And every day, I think about you. I adored you foolish charm, I never meant to do you harm. And your pain was on my mind. Oh my darling Clementine. Oh my precious Clementine, I never dared to look behind me. All this time I ran and ran, And I ran aground, And I pray you'll find me. And with all the bad I've done, I realize that you're the one. And I hope you'll still be mine, Oh my darling Clementine. And with all the bad I've done, I realize that you're the one. I'm such a fool will you be mine, Oh my darling Clementine. I'm such a fool will you be mine, Oh my darling Clementine. I'm such a fool will you be mine, Oh my lovely Clementine. Oh my darling,Oh my darling Oh my darling Clementine.
