Alone And Forsaken - Emmylou Harris
We met in the springtime when blossoms unfold The pastures were green and the meadows were gold Our love was in flower as summer grew on He love like the leaves now has withered and gone The roses have faded, there's frost at my door The birds in the morning don't sing anymore The grass in the valley is starting to die And out in the darkness the whip-poor-wills cry Alone and forsaken by fate and by man Oh, Lord, if you hear me, please hold to my hand Oh, please understand Oh, where has he gone to, oh, where can he be He may have forsaken some other like me He promised to honor, to love and obey Each vow was a plaything that he threw away The darkness is falling, the sky has turned gray A hound in the distance is starting to "Bay" I wonder, I wonder what he's thinking of Forsaken, forgotten without any love Alone and forsaken by fate and by man Oh, Lord, if you hear me, please hold to my hand Alone and forsaken by fate and by man Oh, Lord, if you hear me, please hold to my hand Oh, please understand
