Текст песни Brand on My Heart - Hank Snow

My troubled old heart, dear, is beating with pain
You've gone, and I know I'm the one who's to blame
You've gone in the world, dear, to make a new start
And left as a memory, your brand on my heart

They say you were crying while packing your things
And left me your locket and bright golden rings
The plans for your future I've broken apart
Now all I have left is your brand on my heart

You say you are sorry it ended this way
And that I'll find someone to love me someday
Another to cherish the love we once knew
But darling, that someone can only be you

The flowers you planted, that rose you loved best
Its dark velvet petals are now closed in death
The birds have hushed singing, it all plays a part
To deepen the wound of your brand on my heart

I'm appealing to you dear forgiveness today
For all of your tears, darlin', I've had to pay
If you'll just forgive, me we'll make a new start
And no more will I carry your brand on my heart
