Lyrics Ferlin Husky

Ferlin Husky

Alone And Forsaken

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man

Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand

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

Her love like the leaves now has withered and gone

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man

Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand

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 whippoorwills cry

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man

Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand

Oh where has she gone to oh where can she be

She may have forsaken some other like me

She promised to honor to love and obey

Each vow was a plaything that she threw away

Alone and forsaken by fate and by man

Oh Lord if you hear me please hold to my hand please understand hold to my hand
