Lyrics Rhonda Vincent

Rhonda Vincent

Cry Of The Whippoorwill

Now listen close and you can hear

Their mournful cries ring through the darkness

Lovers lost and all alone

Spirits two forever roam

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

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

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

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

Lovers lost and all alone

Spirits two forever roam
