Ella Fitzgerald — Willow Weep For Me

[Verse 1] Willow weep for me Willow weep for me Bend your branches green along the stream that runs to sea Listen to my plea Listen willow and weep for me Gone my lovers dream Lovely summer dream Gone and left me here to weep my tears into the stream Sad as I can be Hear me willow and weep for me [Bridge] Whisper to the wind and say that love is sin To leave my heart a-breaking, and making a moan Murmur to the night to hide her starry light So none will find me sighing and crying all alone [Verse 2] Oh, weeping willow tree Weeping sympathy Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me When the shadows fall, bend old willow and weep for me [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Whisper to the wind and say that love is sin To leave my heart a-breaking, and making a moan Murmur to the night to hide her starry light So none will find me sighing and crying all alone [Outro] Oh, weeping willow tree Weeping sympathy Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me When the shadows fall, bend old willow and weep for me Weep, weep, willow, weep
