My Dear Companion Lyrics - Linda Ronstadt

Oh have you seen my dear companion 

For he was all this world to me 

I hear he's gone to some far country 

And that he cares no more for me 

I wish I were a swallow flying 

I'd fly to a high and lonesome place 

I'd join the wild birds in their crying 

Thinking of you and your sweet face

Oh have you seen my dear companion 

For he was all this world to me 

But now the stars have turned against me 

And he cares no more for me 

Oh when the dark is on the mountain 

And all the world has gone to sleep 

I will go down to the cold dark waters 

And there I'll lay me down and weep

Oh have you seen my dear companion 

Oh have you seen my dear companion 

For he was all this world to me
