Willow Weep for Me

VERSE

Oh Lord, why did you send the darkness to me?
Are the shadows forever to be?
Where's the light I'm longing to see?
Oh Lord, once we met by the old willow tree
Now you've gone and left nothing to me
Nothing but a sweet memory

Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches green
Along the stream that runs to sea
Listen to my plea
Listen willow and weep for me

Gone my lover's dream
Lovely summer dream
Gone and left me here
To weep my tears into the stream
Sad as I can be
Hear me, willow, and weep for me
BRIDGE

Whisper to the wind
And say that love has sinned
To leave my heart breakin'
And makin' a moan
Murmur to the night
To hide the starry light
So none will find me sighing
And crying all a-lone

Oh, weeping willow tree
Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and cover me
When the shadows fall
Bend, oh willow, and weep for me
