Wildwood Flower Lyrics by June Carter Cash

Wildwood Flower

2003

[Verse 1]
I will twine mid my ringlets and waving black hair
With the roses so red and the lilies so fair
And the myrtle so bright with the emerald hue
The pale amaryllis and violets like blue
[Chorus]
I will dance, I will sing, and my laugh shall be gay
I will charm every heart, in this crown I will sway
But I long to see him then regret the dark hour
He's gone and neglected this frail wildwood flower
[Verse 2]
Well, he taught me to love him and promised to love
And to cherish me over all others above
Now my heart is now wondering, oh, misery can tell
He's left me no warning, no words of farewell
[Chorus]
But I will dance, I will sing, and my laugh shall be gay
I will charm every heart, in this crown I will sway
But I long to see him then regret the dark hour
He's gone and neglected this frail wildwood flower
[Verse 3]
Well, he taught me to love him and he called me his flower
That was blooming to cheer him through life's scary hour
And my heart is now wondering, oh, misery can tell
He's left me no warning, no words of farewell
[Chorus]
But I will dance, I will sing, and my laugh shall be gay
I will charm every heart, in this crown I will sway
But I long to see him then regret the dark hour
He's gone and neglected this frail wildwood flower
