Lyrics:
to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
For the mockingbird is singing o'er her grave
Listen to the mockingbird
Listen to the mockingbird
Still singing where
On a branch of a tree sat a little tomtit,
Singing willow, tit willow, tit willow
An uncomfortable place for a boidie to sit,
Singing willow, tit
river bank,
Where the weeping willow grow,
I'll ease my aching heart tonight,
Down where the dark waters flow.
I planted on her new made grave
The poor soul sat sighing
By a sycamore tree
Sing willow, willow, willow
Her hand on her bosom
Her head on her knee
Sing willow, willow, willow
The poor soul sat sighing
By a sycamore tree
Sing willow, willow, willow
Her hand on her bosom
Her head on her knee
Sing willow, willow, willow
Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and weep for me
Bend, little willow
Wind's gonna blow you
Hard and cold tonight
Life, as it happens
Nobody warns you
Willow, hold on tight
Nothing's gonna
Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and weep for me
Bend, little willow
Wind's gonna blow you
Hard and cold tonight
Life, as it happens
Nobody warns you
Willow, hold on tight
Nothing's gonna
hearted lover is worse than a thief
For a thief will just rob you and take all you save
But a false hearted lover will lead you to the grave
hearted lover is worse than a thief
For a thief will just rob you and take all you save
But a false hearted lover will lead you to the grave
And an echo arose from his suicide's grave
"Oh, willow, tit willow, tit willow"
Now I feel just as sure as
I'm sure that my name's
Not Willow, tit willow, tit
Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bent your branches down along the ground and cover me
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and weep for me
Willow, weep for me
Willow, weep for me
Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me
Listen to my plea
Hear me, willow, and weep for
We lay my love and I beneath the weeping willow.
But now alone I lie and weep beside the tree.
Singing 'Oh willow waly' by the tree that weeps
Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and weep for me
the song
The wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
The wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
The song dream happened
Willow weep for me
Willow weep for me
Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea
Listen to my plea
Hear me willow and weep for me
Willow weep for me, willow weep for me,
Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea,
Listen to my plea, listen willow weep for me,
you to the grave
And the grave will decay you and turn you to dust
Not one girl in a hundred a poor boy can trust
They'll hug you and kiss you
you to the grave
And the grave will decay you and turn you to dust
Not one girl in a hundred a poor boy can trust
They'll hug you and kiss you
lover is worse than a thief
A thief will just rob you take all that you have
But false hearted lovers take you to your grave
The grave will decay you
hearted lover is worse than a thief
A thief will just rob you take all that you have
But false hearted lovers take you to your grave
The grave will
and I know
I can't go on, digging roses from you grave
To linger on, beyond the beyond
Where the willows weep
And whirlpools sleep, you'll find
