Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean
The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green The snowbird sings a song he always sings And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring When I was young my heart was young then too Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do But now I feel such emptiness within For the thing that I want most in life Is the thing I can't win Spread your tiny wings and fly away And take the snow back with you Where it came from on that day The one I love forever is untrue And if I could you know that I would fly away with you The breeze along the river seems to say That she'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay So little snowbird take me with you when you go To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow |

Tonight I'm alone without you my dear
It seems that there's a longing for you still Oh but I just keep it there so I won't be alone In our little cabin on the hill Oh someone has taken you from me And left me here all alone To listen to the rain beat on our window pane In our little cabin on the hill |

How many arms
have held you And hated to let you go How many how many I wonder But I really don't want to~ know How many lips have kissed you And set your soul a glow How many how many I wonder But I really don't want to~ know So always make me wonder And always make me guess And even even if I ask you oh darling don't confess just let it remain your secret But darling I love you so No wonder no wonder I wonder Though I really don't want to~ know No I really don't want to~ know. |

There goes my only possession
There goes my everything I hear footsteps slowly walking As they gently walk across the lonely floor And a voice is softly saying Darling this will be goodbye for evermore There goes my reason for living There goes the one of my dreams There goes my only possession There goes my everything As my memory turns back the pages I can see the happy years we’ve had before Now the love that kept this heart beating Has been shattered by the closing of the door |

You offered me a penny for my thoughts
And I told you then that woman won't stay caught But you turned and loved her anyway She broke your heart and all I've got to say It's your baby, you rock it It's your heartache, you bought it You made the bed your sleeping in And I'm tired of hearing about it friend It's your baby you, rock it Well you cried upon my shoulder like a baby I'm sorry 'bout your troubles and your lady But she done you like she done me And I've used up all my sympathy It's your baby you, rock it It's your baby, you rock it It's your heartache, you bought it You made the bed your sleeping in And I'm tired of hearing about it friend It's your baby you, rock it |

The sandman comes to my house late each night
But it's way in the morning before he turns out my life It's times like this my darling I can see If I were you I'd know that I love me The great snowman I've been called by all But it looks like this time I'm gonna fall It's times like this my darling I can see Oooh if I were you I'd know that I love me Wind and rain and storm closin' in on me I've walked the streets alone with my self sympathy Can you hear me saying hopefully Oooh if I were you I'd know that I love me Wind and rain and storm closin' in on me I've walked the streets alone with my self sympathy Can you hear me saying hopefully If I were you I'd know that I love me Oooh if I were you I'd know that I love me If I were you I'd know that I love me |

The words of her promise
The flame of her faith The love that would never drift away Where did they go Lord, where did they go? You know somehow forever Slipped out of my hands And my dreams ran away with the wind Where did they go Lord, where did they go You know sometimes I wish I had lost her to another Well but Lord she just walked off all alone And the heart that's within me is not bitter just hurt And bewildered because her love had gone Oh the passion I trusted The truth that I leaned on And the hope that would forever keep me strong I cry out my questions Oh, the answers are all gone Where did they go Lord, tell me where did they go Where did they go Lord, tell me where did they go |
