Lyrics

Bob shane/nick reynolds/john stewart

(Chorus)
Bury me beneath the willow
'Neath the weeping willow tree
When she hears that I am sleeping
Maybe then, she'll think of me

My heart is sad and I am lonely
Thinking of the one I love
Will I see her? never. never
Not 'til we meet in heaven above

So, (chorus)

She told me that she really loved me
How could I believe her untrue?
Then one day some neighbors told me
"She has proven untrue to you"

So, (chorus)

Tomorrow was to be our wedding
I pray "oh lord, where can she be?"
She has gone; she'd gone to love another
She no longer cares for me

So, (chorus)

Maybe then she'll think of me
