Wildwood Flower

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 emerald dew The pale and the leader and eyes look like blue He told me he loved me and called me his flower That blossomed for him all the brighter each hour Though my heart is now breaking, he never shall know That his name makes me tremble, my pale cheeks to glow I'll sing and I'll dance and my laugh shall be gay I'll charm every heart and the crowd I will away I'll live you to see him regret the dark hour When he won and neglected this frail wildwood flower I'll think of him never, I'll be wild and gay I'll cease this wild weeping, drive sorrow away But I wake from my dreaming, my idol was clay My visions of love have all vanished away
