[Emmylou Harris, Mark Knopfler - Alone And Forsaken lyrics]
The pastures were green and
The meadows were gold
Our love was in flower as summer grew on
He love like the leaves now
Has withered and gone
The roses have faded
There's frost at my door
The birds in the morning don't sing anymore
The grass in the valley is starting to die
And out in the darkness
The whippoor wills 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 he gone to, oh, where can he be
He may have forsaken some other like me
He promised to honor, to love and obey
Each vow was a plaything that he threw away
The darkness is falling
The sky has turned gray
A hound in the distance is starting to "BAY"
I wonder, I wonder - what he's thinking of
Forsaken, forgotten - without any love
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if You hear me please
Hold to my hand
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if You hear me please
Hold to my hand oh, please, understand
