Oh, I'll twine with my mingles and waving black hair
With the roses so red and the lilies so fair And the
myrtles so bright with emerald dew The pale and the
leader and eyes look like blue.
Oh, I'll dance, I will sing and my laugh shall be gay
I will charm ev'ry heart, in his crown I will sway
When I woke from my dreaming,
idols were clay All portions of love then had all flown
away. Oh, he taught me to love him and promised to
love And to cherish me over all others above How my
heart now is wond'ring misery can tell He's left me
no warning, no words of farewell.
Oh, he taught me to love him and called me his flow'r
That was blooming to cheer him through life's dreary
hour Oh, I'm longing to see him through life's dark
hour He's gone and neglected this pale wildwood flower.
This song is from the album "Best Of 1966-79", "Hank Thompson & His Brazos Val" and "Quintessential Hank Thompson 1948-1979".
