Hard-Hearted Hannah

de Layton & Johnstone

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 lover's 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

Whisper to the wind and say that love has sinned
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 alonе

Oh, weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down along the ground and covеr me
When the shadows fall, bend oh willow and weep for me

Oh, love
Why did you send the darkness to me?
Are the shadows forever to be?
Where's the light I'm longing to see?

Oh, love
Once we met by the old willow tree
Now you’ve gone and left nothing for me
Nothing but a sweet memory

Whisper to the wind and say that love has sinned
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

Oh, weeping willow tree, weep in sympathy
Bend your branches down along the ground and cover me
When the shadows fall, bend oh willow and weep for me
