Chris Thile - Bury Me Beneath The Willow lyrics

Tonight I'm sad, my heart is lonesome For the only one I love When shall I see her? Oh no, never Till we meet in heaven above So bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So she will know where I am sleeping And perhaps she'll weep for me She told me that she dearly loved me Oh, how could I believe it untrue? Until an angel softly whispered She could never care for you So bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So she will know where I am sleeping And perhaps she'll weep for me Tomorrow was to be our wedding Oh God, oh God, where can she be? She's gone a-courting with another And no longer cares for me So bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So she will know where I am sleeping And perhaps she'll weep for me So she will know where I am sleeping And perhaps she'll weep for me
