Where they do not know my name

The day I found your letter darlin'
I knew i'd lost you once again
You can't hear me when I'm cryin'
You won't hear me when I call your name
Chorus:
I'm going down, down to the station
Wear my gold watch and chain
Five year's a-wasted,
I'm going where they do not know my name
Your family said that we were foolish
That our love would surely die
As many years had come between us
Now I hear your last goodbye
[ Chorus ]
Now the time will see my heartache
Where my name won't be misused
No one will ask me if i'm livin'
No one will (???)
[ Chorus ]
