Willow Weep for Me
Ann Ronell
Willow weep for me, weeping willow tree
Bend your branches green along the stream
That runs to the sea
Listen, listen to my plea
Listen willow and weep for me
Gone, my lover's dream, lovely summer dream
Gone and left me here to cry
My tears into the stream
I am so sad, sad as I can be
Hear me willow and weep for me
Whisper to the wind and say
That love has sinned
And left 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
Oh, weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down along the
Ground and cover me when the shadows fall
Bend over willow and weep for me
Hear me willow and weep for me
