Where the Willows Weep

I buried my heart that I swore to keep On top of a hill where the willows weep Forty-two years then time stood still Underneath that tree on top of that hill Surrounded by flowers, how I hate that smell They remind me of death and a sad farewell As I go to her grave and I sit by her side I'm wishing that I was the one who had died As I stare at the stone that has only one name I'm trying my best to find someone to blame When the sun starts to set, I don't want to leave So I sit by her grave and I silently grieve With forty-two years of heavenly bliss Why does true love have to end like this? She gave me her best for all of those years I remember them all as I count all my tears A promise was made that I swore to keep I'd bury my heart where the willows weep Beneath those sad trees on top of that hill Is where my love lies, now time stands still
