Close By LyricsYou've gone so far away my darlin'
Each time I think of you I cry
I press your picture to my bosom
Then I feel that you're close by
Years have passed, you've not returned dear
Now they say that you have died
But your soul will live forever
Now I know you'll be close by
I saw you last while you were leaving
The tears from you I try to hide
You took me in your arms and said dear
Your memory I'll keep close by
They buried you in a lonely graveyard
And a spot they left beside
Thеre we'll sleep 'til Jesus calls us
So that wе can be close by
