We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold
The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
Our love was in flower as summer grew on
Her love like the leaves now has withered and gone.
The roses have faded theres frost at my door
The birds in the morning dont sing anymore
The grass in the valley is starting to die
And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry.
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh Lord if You hear me please hold to my hand
Oh please understand.
Oh where has she gone to oh where can she be
She may have forsaken some other like me
She promised to honor to love and obey
Each vow was a play thing that she threw away.
The darkness is falling the sky has turned gray
A hound in the distance is starting to bey
I wonder I wonder what she's thinking of
Forsaken forgotten without any love.
(Repeat Chorus)
