The willow weeps and having wept can weep no more
But still it cries for me, it cries in sympathy
It knows that you are gone
Don't leave me baby
There was a time when you were mine
And not so long ago
I used to say you'd never go away
You'd never leave me lonely
Don't leave me baby
Think about the happy times, the groovy times
Don't tell me they are gone
I just can't carry on and know that
You're not near, you're not near any more
Don't leave me baby, things are gonna work out fine
Don't leave me baby, think I'm going out of my mind
Don't leave me baby, don't leave me behind
The willow weeps and having wept can weep no more
But still it cries for me, it cries in sympathy
It knows that you are gone
