Banjo Intro: Chorus: Now listen close and you can hear Their mournful cries ring through the darkness Lovers lost and all alone Spirits two forever roam Verse 1: Like a nightbird's wail when the wind is still The sound of river and a whippoorwill Like the driving rain on a roof of tin Her words of love call out to him Fiddle Break: Verse 2: In the chill of the night through falling snow Two hearts run wild nowhere to go Crossing hills and valleys wide To meet once more on the other side
Chorus: Guitar/Banjo Break: Verse 3: It's a bitter Wind that sings her song About a love so right and yet so wrong And promised hearts where pa**ions dwell No one can see no one can tell Verse 4: Souls lost in time they were never found Frozen in (?solid?) on the cold hard ground Forever wild forever free Wrapped in the arms of eternity Chorus: Mando/Fiddle Break: Chorus: Vocal Ending: Lovers lost and all alone Spirits two forever roam
