Springtime is near my darling
|
You say that you are going away
|
My heart will be with you my darling
|
And IAĦŻm counting now the days
|
|
I know that soon IAĦŻll have to travel
|
I know IAĦŻm over the hill
|
I feel so all alone my darling said sheAĦŻd be gone
|
When I heard that first whippoorwill
|
|
The flowers are blooming little darling
|
With the budding of the trees
|
I hear the night birds a crying
|
I know that they are warning me
|
|
Our love was planted little darling
|
Just like the farmer plants his grain
|
But there will never be a harvest
|
On the hills the whippoorwills now sing
|
