Hank Williams Sr. - Alone and Forsaken lyrics

[Verse 1] We met in the springtime When blossoms unfold The pastures were green And the meadows were gold [Verse 2] Our love was in flower As summer grew on Her love, like the leaves Now has withered and gone [Verse 3] The roses have faded There's frost at my door The birds in the morning Don't sing anymore [Verse 4] The gra** in the valley Is starting to die And out in the darkness The whip-poor-wills cry [Chorus] Alone and forsaken By fate and by man Oh, lord if you hear me Please hold my hand Oh, please understand [Verse 5] Oh, where has she gone to Oh, where can she be? She may have forsaken Some other like me [Verse 6] She promised to honor To love and obey Each vow was a plaything That she threw away [Verse 7] The darkness is falling The sky has turned gray A hound in the distance Is starting to bay [Verse 8] I wonder, I wonder What she's thinking of? Forsaken, forgotten Without any love [Chorus]
