Willow Weep for Me

Willow Weep for Me - Lou Rawls/Les McCann

Lyrics by：Ann Ronell

Composed by：Ann Ronell

Oh Willow weep for me

Willow weep for me

Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea

Listen to my plea

Listen willow and weep for me

Gone my lovers dream

All that lovely Summer dream

Gone and left me here to weep my tears into the stream

Now I'm sad as I can be

Won't you hear me willow and weep for me

Whisper to the wind to say that love has sinned

To leave my heart a-breaking and making a moan

Murmur to the night to hide her's starry light

So none will find me sighing and crying all alone

Weeping willow tree

Weep in sympathy

Oh just bend your branches down

Along the ground woo cover me

When the shadows fall

Won't you bend oh willow and weep for me

Will you whisper to the wind

And just to say that love has sinned

To leave my heart a breaking

And a making all among

Murmur to the night

Tell her to hide her starry light

So none will find me sighing

Crying all alone

Weeping willow tree

Weeping sympathy

Oh just bent your branches down

Along the ground who cover me

When the shadows fall

Won't you been the willow and weep
