Willow Weep for Me Songtext
von Helen Merrill

Willow, weep for me, willow, weep for me
Bend your branches green along the stream that flows to sea
Listen to my plea, listen, willow, and weep for me

Gone my lover′s dream, lovely summer dream
Gone and left me here to weep my tears into the stream
Sad as I can be, hear me, willow, and weep for me


Whisper to the wind and say that love is sin
To leave my heart a-breaking, and making a moan
Murmur to the night to hide her starry light
So none will find me sighing and crying all alone

Weeping willow tree, weeping sympathy
Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me
When the shadows fall, bend, old willow, and weep for me
