Willow Weep for Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Willow, weep for me
Willow, weep for me
Bend your branches green
Along the stream that runs to sea

[Refrain]
Listen to my plea
Listen, willow, and weep for me

[Verse 2]
Gone my lover's dream
Lovely summer dream
Gone and left me here
To weep my tears into the stream

[Refrain]
Sad as I can be
Hear me, willow, and weep for me

[Bridge]
Whisper to the wind
And say that love has sinned
Leave my heart a-breaking
And making a moan
Murmur to the night
To hide the starry light
So none will find me sighing
And crying all alonе
[Verse 3]
Weepin' willow tree
Weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down
Along the ground and covеr me

[Refrain]
When the shadows fall
Bend, oh willow, and weep for me

  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
