Lonely Morning Again Lyrics

LONELY MORNING AGAIN

'Twas a cooling cloudy morning again

As I walked alone through forest tracks

Holding my aching heart in my hands

Afraid to let it drop in case it breaks

The aspens shook their heads in sorrow

Bending low to follow my lonely tread

A hint of sadness in the breeze

The scent of fallen forest trees ahead

'Tis a lonely morning again

Oh where are you my love

Another lonely morning again

Are you safe in heaven above

This greening place was once our tryst

We were two lovers in the morning sun

Our honeysuckle evenings heady with desire

Just you and me feels like we're the only ones

We had a love both strong and true

No one could come between us

He was my rock, I was his jewel

How cruel this life to have deceived us

A thunderbolt sent by vengeful gods

No warning, but my lovely boy he's gone

We searched in vain for two whole days

Then weeks and months from dusk till dawn

We scoured the forests, fields and glens

Brave diving men searched rivers deep

Oh my living breathing boy is gone

Somewhere my soul can never reach

Tis a lonely morning again

Oh where are you my love

Another lonely morning again

Are you safe in heaven above

Are you safe in heaven above
