Willow Weep for Me

(Ann Ronell)



Willow weep for me, willow weep for me

Then your branches bring along the stream that runs to sea

Listen to my plea, listen willow and weep for me.



Gone my loveless 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 has sinned

To leave my heart a breaking and making a moan

Mamba 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...
