"Locust In The Willow" lyrics
"Locust In The Willow"
If I was some little swallow
Had little wings and I could fly
I'd light in the arms of my own true lover
And if any courting there I'd be by
If I were a little sparrow
Had little wings and I could fly
I would alight by the side of my own true lover
And there I'd sit till the day I die
I'd 'light up in some weeping willow
Weep for weeks, for months and years
Wouldn't eat nothing but weeping willow
And what I'd drink would be my tears

The Civil Wars - "I've Got This Friend" I've got this friend
I don't think you know him
He's not much for words
He's hidden his heart away
Oh I've got this friend
A loveless romantic
All that he really wants
Is someone to want him back...
