Lyrics

[00:02.37] We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold
[00:07.53] The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
[00:13.03] Our love was in flower as summer grew on
[00:17.25] Her love like the leaves now has withered and gone
[00:23.41] The roses have faded, there's frost at my door
[00:27.51] The birds in the morning don't sing anymore
[00:33.29] The grass in the valley is starting to die
[00:37.78] And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry
[00:43.78] Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
[00:48.21] Oh, lord, if you hear me please hold to my hand
[00:52.87] Oh, please understand
[00:57.87] Oh, where has she gone to,oh, where can she be
[01:02.37] She may have forsaken some other like me
[01:08.34] She promised to honor, to love and obey
[01:12.99] Each vow was a plaything that she threw away
[01:20.18] The darkness is falling, the sky has turned gray
[01:24.95] A hound in the distance is starting to "bay"
[01:30.94] I wonder, I wonder - what she's thinking of
[01:35.53] Forsaken, forgotten - without any love
[01:41.61] Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
[01:46.42] Oh, lord, if you hear me please hold to my hand
[01:51.22] Oh, please understand
