Well met, well met, my own true love Well met, well met, cried he I've just returned from the salt, salt sea And it's all for the sake of thee I've come for the vows that you promised me To be my partner in life She said my vows you must forgive For now I'm a...

Down in the willow garden Where me and my true love did meet It was there, we went a courting My love fell off to sleep I had a bottle of burgundy wine My true love, she did not know It was there, I murdered that dear little girl Down on the banks below I dr...

She had five hundred dollars that her grandma left She said for a rainy day A hundred more from the general store Where she stocked the shelves for pay She'd had enough of those country roads And the wind in the telephone wires Said a prayer for luck, started...

~~~♫♫♫~~~ Evenin', Each night you come and you find me, Why must you always come and remind me, That my gal is gone? Evenin', Can't you see I'm deep in your power, Each minute seems like an hour, Since my gal is gone. Shadows fall on the wall, That's...

Chorus Every day is a long time waiting Every night is alone and cryin? Your memory is a long time fadin? Every tear has a reason why, every tear has a reason why Echos are fillin? the hallways, bringin? back those better times The smell and the touch a...

We have our moods sometimes we might get out of synch We might even have a fight if we have to much to drink I guess she has her own shape and I know I must have mine But we make one happy shape, one big happy shape most of the time We were just two kids hand...

Few are chosen, few ever see the light of day Through the eye of the needle one or two will make their way We're all searching for the same thing, a little hope one single ray Few are chosen and few ever see the light of day Now the night shift is over, anoth...

At the end of the summer there's a couple of days Before the weather starts shiftin' and changin' it's ways The winds blow so gently on the things lovers do That was the season when I first met you We fell so deep in love, nothin' to fear It came to be our fa...
