Lyrics My Antonia - Emmylou Harris
He
said
Oh,
my
love.
Oh,
my
Antonia
You
with
the
dark
eyes
and
palest
of
skin
Tonight
I
am
going
from
Santa
Maria
Wait
for
me
till
I′m
in
your
arms
once
again.
She
held
me,
she
kissed
me,
begged
me
not
to
leave
her
To
cross
on
1he
mountain
my
fortune
to
win
But
a
letter
now
tells
me
she
died
of
a
fever
I'll
never
see
her
in
this
world
again.
You
are
my
sorrow,
you
are
my
splendor
You
are
my
shelter
through
storm
and
through
strife
You
are
the
one
I
will
always
remember
All
off
the
days
of
my
life.
I
curse
the
ambition
that
took
me
far
from
her
For
a
treasure
not
ever
so
fine
or
so
fair
As
the
flash
of
her
smile
or
the
touch
of
her
fingers
The
fire
in
her
heart
and
the
smell
of
her
hair.
She
left
me
a
note
that
cried
Do
not
weep
for
me
Behold
you
are
with
me
as
sure
as
the
stars
That
rise
in
the
evening
to
shine
down
upon
me
Behold
I
am
with
you
wherever
you
are.
I
can
still
hear
him.
he
calls
to
me
only
What
once
was
begotten
shall
come
to
no
end
But
the
road
is
so
long
and
the
nights
are
so
lonely
My
soul
just
to
hold
him
in
this
world
again.
You
are
my
sorrow,
you
are
my
splendor
You
are
my
shelter
through
storm
and
through
strife
You
are
the
one
I
will
always
remember
All
of
the
days
of
my
life.
Oh
my
love,
Oh
my
Antonia
You
with
the
dark
eyes
and
palest
of
skin
How
could
I
know
thai
night
in
Santa
Maria
I′d
never
see
you
in
this
world
again...
