"Alone And Forsaken" lyrics
(originally by Hank Williams)
We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold
The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
Our love was in flower as summer grew on
Her love like the leaves now withered and gone
Roses have faded, there's frost at my door
The birds in the morning don't sing anymore
Grass in the valley is starting to die
And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if you hear me, please, hold my hand
Oh, please, understand
Oh, where has she gone to? Oh, where could she be?
She may have forsaken some other like me
She promised to honor, to love and to pray
Each vow was a plaything she threw away
Darkness is falling, sky has turned gray
A hound in the distance is starting to bey
I wonder, I wonder what she's thinking of
Forsaken, forgotten without any love
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if you hear me, please, hold my hand
Oh, please, understand
The pastures were green and the meadows were gold
Our love was in flower as summer grew on
Her love like the leaves now withered and gone
Roses have faded, there's frost at my door
The birds in the morning don't sing anymore
Grass in the valley is starting to die
And out in the darkness the whippoorwills cry
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if you hear me, please, hold my hand
Oh, please, understand
Oh, where has she gone to? Oh, where could she be?
She may have forsaken some other like me
She promised to honor, to love and to pray
Each vow was a plaything she threw away
Darkness is falling, sky has turned gray
A hound in the distance is starting to bey
I wonder, I wonder what she's thinking of
Forsaken, forgotten without any love
Alone and forsaken by fate and by man
Oh, Lord, if you hear me, please, hold my hand
Oh, please, understand
