Country girl 歌词

Country Girl Country girl I beheld her in meadowland Longing and reaping And singing a refrain Oh, what a melancholy strain The valley echoed with the ring No nightingale could ever sing So plaintively as the country girl I was spellbound and curious Why such a sad song Perhaps love passed her by No hope for rainbows in the sky Maybe she held a memory Of happiness of yesteryear In solitude cried the country girl Came the hour to travel on Sadness befell me A sorrow filled my heart A longing never to depart Through music in my soul I bore Long after it was heard no more And memories of the country girl Whose love I'll never know
