Lyrics

My heart is sad and I am lone ly, think ing of the one I love. I know I nev er more shall see him till we met in heav’n a bove. So bur y me be neath the wil low; ’Neath the weep ing wil low tree. And when he knows where I am sleep ing, then per haps he’ll weep for me. They told me that he loved an oth er, I could not be lieve them true un til an an gel soft ly whis pered, “he has proved his love un true.” So bur y me be neath the wil low, ’neath the weep ing wil low tree, and when he knows where I am sleep ing then per haps he’ll weep for me. To mor row was to be our wed ding Lord, oh Lord where can he be? He’s gone a way to wed an oth er; he no lon ger cares for me. So bur y me, oh bur y me ’neath the weep ing wil low tree And when he knows where I am sleep ing, then per haps he’ll weep, weep, weep, for me.
