Alone and Forsaken Songtext
von Social Distortion

We met in the springtime
When blossoms unfold
The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
Our love was in flower
As summer grew on
Our love, like the leaves now have 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 whip-poor-wills cry

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord if you hear me please hold my hand
Oh, please understand


Oh, where has she gone to
Oh, where can she be
She may have forsaken some other like me
She promised to honor
To love and obey
Each vow was a plaything that she threw away

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord if you hear me please hold my hand
Oh, please understand

The darkness has fallen
The sky has turned gray
The hound in the distance is starting to bay
I wonder, I wonder
What she's thinking of
Forsaken, forgotten without any love

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord if you hear me please hold my hand
Oh, please understand
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord if you hear me please hold my hand
Oh, please understand
Oh, please understand
Oh, please understand
