Beneath the Willow

Traditional

[Verse 1]
My heart is sad and I am lonely
For the only girl I love
And now I know I'll never see her
Until we meet in heaven above

[Chorus]
Oh, bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
And when she learns that I am sleeping
Then I know she'll think of me

[Verse 2]
She told me that she loved me dearly
I answered that I loved her too
But then the willow seemed to whisper
"She will prove untrue to you"

[Chorus]
Oh, bury me bеneath the willow
Benеath the weeping willow tree
And when she learns that I am sleeping
Then I know she'll think of me

[Verse 3]
Tomorrow was to be our wedding
I wonder where my love can be
She's gone, she's gone to seek another
She no longer cares for me

[Chorus]
Oh, bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
And when she learns that I am sleeping
Then I know she'll think of me

[Outro]
Then I know she'll think of me
