Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches green along
the stream that runs to sea
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and weep for me
Gone my lovers 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
Whisper to the wind and say that
love has sinned
Left my heart a-breaking, and
making a moan
Murmur to the night to hide its
starry light
So none will see me sighing and
crying all alone
Weeping willow tree
Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down along
the ground and cover me
When the shadows fall, hear me
willow and weep for me
Oh, Weeping willow tree
Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down along
the ground and cover me
When the shadows fall, hear me
willow and weep for me
