the carter family – faded flowers lyrics
[verse 1]
the flowers i saw in the wild-wood
have since dropped their beautiful leaves
and the many dear friends of my childhood
have slumbered for years in their graves
but the bloom of the flowers i remember
though their smiles i may nevermore see
for the cold, chilly winds of december
stole my flowers’ companions from me
[chorus]
it is no wonder that i’m broken-hearted
and stricken with sorrows should be
for we have met, we have loved, we have parted
my flowers’ companions and me
[verse 2]
how dark looks this world and how dreary
when we part from the ones that we love
there is rest for the faint and the weary
and friends meet with loved ones above
for in heaven i can but remember
when from earth my soul shall be freed
that no cold, chilly winds of december
shall steal my companions from me
[chorus]
