Carlisle Floyd - The Trees on the Mountains lyrics

The trees on the mountains are cold and bare The summer jes’ vanished an’ left them there Like a false-hearted lover jes’ like my own Who made me love him, then left me alone The coals on the hearth have turned gray and sere The blue flame jes’ vanished an’ left them there Like a false-hearted lover jes’ like my own Who made me love him, then left me alone Come back, O summer, come back, blue flame My heart wants warmin’, my baby a name Come back, O lover, if jes’ fer a day Turn bleak December once more into May The road up ahead lies lonely an’ far There’s darkness around me an’ not even a star To show me the way or lighten my heart Come back, my lover, I fain would start The pore baby fox lies all cold in his lair His mama jes’ vanished an’ left him there Like a false-hearted lover jes’ like my own Who made me love him, then left me alone Come back, O summer, come back, blue flame My heart wants warmin’, my baby a name Come back, O lover, if jes’ fer a day Turn bleak December once more into May Come back, O summer, come back, blue flame My heart wants warmin’, my baby a name Come back, O lover, if jes’ fer a day Turn bleak December once more into May Come back! Come back! Come back!
