Alone and Forsaken

We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold

The pastures were green and the meadows were gold

Her love like the leaves now has withered and gone

The birds in the morning don’t sing anymore

And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry

A lone and forsaken by fate and by man

Oh Lord if You hear me please hold to my hand

Oh please understand

Oh where has she gone to oh where can she be

She may have forsaken some other like me

Each vow was a plaything that she threw away

A hound in the distance is starting to bay

Forsaken forgotten without any love

A lone and forsaken by fate and by man

Oh Lord if You hear me please hold to my hand

Oh please understand
