(AKA LOST LOVE)
Oh the flowers that I loved in the wildwood
They have sent off their beautiful blooms
And the many dear friends of my childhood
Have slumbered for years in their tombs
It's no wonder I'm broken-hearted
Stricken with sorrow to be
We have met, we have loved, we have parted
Oh my flower, my companion and me
Oh the rose that I loved I remember
And the smile that I never more shall see
Since the cold bitter winds of December
Stole my flower, my companion from me
It's no wonder I'm broken-hearted...
Ah but think of that bright shiny morning
When our spirits from earth shall be free
And we meet those we've loved in that dawning
Oh my flower, my companion and me
It's no wonder I'm broken-hearted
Stricken with sorrow to be
We have met, we have loved, we have parted
Oh my flower, my companion and me
We have met, we have loved, we have parted
Oh my flower, my companion and me
Norma Waterson
