Joan Baez - Wildwood Flower lyrics
[Joan Baez - Wildwood Flower lyrics]
I will twine with my mingles
Of raven black hair
With the roses so red and the lilies so fair
The meadow so bright with it's emerald hue
And the pale amelita and eyes look so blue
I will dance
I will sing and my life shall be gay
I will charm every heart
In his crown I will sway
I woke from my dream and all idols was clay
And all portions of lovin' had all flown away
He told me to love him and promised to love
And cherish me over all others above
My poor heart is wondering
No misery can tell
He left me no warning, no words of farewell
He taught me to love him
And called me his flower
That was blooming to cheer him
Through life's weary hour
How I long to see him
And regret the dark hour
He's gone and neglected his
Frail wildwood flower
Of raven black hair
With the roses so red and the lilies so fair
The meadow so bright with it's emerald hue
And the pale amelita and eyes look so blue
I will dance
I will sing and my life shall be gay
I will charm every heart
In his crown I will sway
I woke from my dream and all idols was clay
And all portions of lovin' had all flown away
He told me to love him and promised to love
And cherish me over all others above
My poor heart is wondering
No misery can tell
He left me no warning, no words of farewell
He taught me to love him
And called me his flower
That was blooming to cheer him
Through life's weary hour
How I long to see him
And regret the dark hour
He's gone and neglected his
Frail wildwood flower
