I'll twine with my mingles
And waving black hair
With the roses so red 
And the lilies so fair
The myrtle so bright 
With the emerald dew
And the pale and the leader 
And eyes look like blue


I'll dance, I will sing 
And my laugh shall be gay
I will charm every heart
In his crown I will sway
When I woke from my dreaming
My idols was clay
And all portions of love had all flown away


Instrumental


He taught me to love him
And promised to love
And to cherish me over 
All others above
My poor heart is now wond'ring 
No misery can tell
He's left me no warning
No words of farewell


He taught me to love him 
And called me his flower
That was blooming to cheer him 
Through life's dreary hour
How I long to see him
And regret the dark hour
He's gone and neglected 
This pale wildwood flower
