Where The Silvery Colorado Wends Its Way - The Carter Family

The twilight softly gathered

Round my home among the hills

And all nature soon will settle away to rest

While I sit and sadly ponder

And my heart with longing fills

As I often think of one that I love best

We were wedded in the springtime

And our hearts they knew no pain

Fair nature seemed to smile on us that day

Now she sleeps beneath the lilacs

And she'll ne'er come back again

Where the silver Colorado wends its way

There's a sob on every breeze

And a sigh comes from the trees

And the mocking birds they sing a sadder way

For the flowers creep no more

Round my cheerless cabin door

Where the silver Colorado wends its way

The silver snow is gleaming

On your distant mountainside

Where often used to wander Nell and I

And the birds are singing gaily

In the valley far below

Where I long some day to lay me down and die

Then our lives were gay and happy

In the shadow of the hills

My heart beats fonder for her day by day

And I feel her presence near me

As I sit alone tonight

Where the silver Colorado wends its way

There's a sob on every breeze

And a sigh comes from the trees

And the mocking birds they sing a sadder way

For the flowers creep no more

Round my cheerless cabin door

Where the silver Colorado wends its way
