10,000 Maniacs - Wildwood Flower
i will twine with your mingles of raven black
hair
with the roses so red and the lilies so fair
with myrtle as bright
as the emerald dew
the pale and the lyd-er and eyes of light blue
oh
he promised to love me; he promised to love
and to cherish me always all
others above.
i woke from my dream and my idol was clay
my passion for
loving had vanished away.
oh he taught me to love him; he called me his
flower
a blossom to cheer him through life's weary hour
but now he is
gone and left me alone
the wild flowers to weep and the wild birds to mourn.
i will dance and i'll sing and my life shall be gay
i will charm
every heart and each crown I shall sway
though my heart now is breaking he
never shall know
how his name makes me tremble, my pale cheeks to glow.
i will dance and i'll sing and my heart will be gay
i'll banish this
weeping, drive troubles away.
i'll live yet to see him regret this dark hour
when we won and neglected this frail wildwood flower.
