Whispering Pines

Whispering Pines - Iris Dement

Written by：Howard Hausey

The snowflakes fall as winter comes

And time just seems to fly

Is it the loneliness in me

That makes me want to cry

My heart is sad like a morning dove

That's lost its mate in flight

Hear the cooing of his lonely heart

Through the stillness of the night

Whispering pines whispering pines

Tell me is it so

Whispering pines whispering pines

You're the one who knows

My darlin' is gone ohh she's gone

And I need your sympathy

Whispering pines

Send my baby back to me

See that squirrel up in the tree

His mate there on the ground

Hear their barking call of love

For the happiness they've found

Is my love still my love ohh this I gotta know

Send the message by the wind

Because I love her so

Whispering pines whispering pines

Tell me is it so

Whispering pines whispering pines

You're the one who knows

My darlin' is gone ohh she's gone

And I need your sympathy

Whispering pines

Send my baby back to me

Whispering pines

Send my baby back to me
