Laura Veirs - Wildwood Flower lyrics

Oh I'll twine with my mingles and raven black hair With the roses so red and the lilies so fair And the mirtles so bright with the emerald dew The pale and the leader whose eyes look like blue Oh I will dance, I will sing and my laugh shall be gay I will charm every heart, in his crown I will sway When I woke from dreaming all my idols was clay All portions of love have flown all away Oh he taught me to love him and promised to love And to cherish me over all others above How my heart now is wondering, no misery can tell He's left me no warning, no words of farewell Oh he taught me to love him and call me his flower That was blooming to cheer him through life's dreary hour Oh how long to see him, oh I regret the dark hour He's gone and neglected his pale wildwood flower
