Oh I'll twine with my mingles
And waving black hair
With the roses so red
And the lilies so fair
And the myrtles so bright
With the emerald dew
The pale and the leader
And eyes look like blue
I will dance I will sing
And my laugh shall be gay
I will charm every heart in each crown
I will sway
When I woke from my dreaming
My idols were clay
All portions of love had all flown away
Oh he taught me to love
Him and promised to love
And to cherish me over
All others above
How my heart is now wondering
No misery can tell
He's left me no warning
No words of farewell
Oh he taught me to love him
And call me his flower
That was blooming to cheer
Him through life's dreary hour
How I long to see him
And regret the dark hour
He's gone and neglected
His pale wild wood flower
