Bury Me Beneath The Willow Lyrics
My heart is sad and I'm in sorrow
For the only one I love
When will I see him, no, no, never
Till I meet him in heaven above
Then bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
Where he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for me
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
He told me that he dearly loved me
How could I believe him untrue
Until an angel softly whispered
He has proven untrue to you
Then bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
Where he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for me
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
Tomorrow was their wedding day
But, alas, oh, where can he be
He's gone, he's gone to wed another
And he no longer cares for me
Then bury me beneath the willow
Beneath the weeping willow tree
Where he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for me
For the only one I love
When will I see him, no, no, never
Till I meet him in heaven above
Beneath the weeping willow tree
Where he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for me
How could I believe him untrue
Until an angel softly whispered
He has proven untrue to you
Beneath the weeping willow tree
Where he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for me
But, alas, oh, where can he be
He's gone, he's gone to wed another
And he no longer cares for me
Beneath the weeping willow tree
Where he may know where I am sleeping
And perhaps he will weep for me
