Now listen close and you can hear
Their mournful cries ring through the darkness

Lovers lost and all alone
Spirits two forever roam


Verse 1:

Like a nightbird's wail when the wind is still
The sound of river and a whippoorwill
Like the driving rain on a roof of tin

Her words of love call out to him

Fiddle Break:

5 5 1 1 1 1

Verse 2:

In the chill of the night through falling snow
Two hearts run wild nowhere to go
Crossing hills and valleys wide

To meet once more on the other side

Chorus:

Verse 3:
It's a bitter Wind that sings her song

About a love so right and yet so wrong
And promised hearts where passions dwell
No one can see no one can tell


Verse 4:
Souls lost in time they were never found

Frozen in (?solid?) on the cold hard ground
Forever wild forever free
Wrapped in the arms of eternity


Chorus:

Lovers lost and all alone
Spirits two forever roam
