Social Distortion - Alone And Forsaken lyrics

rate me

We met in the springtime

when the blossoms unfold,

the pastures were green

and the meadows were gold.

Our love was in flower

as summer grew on.

Her love like the leaves

now have withered and gone.

The roses have faded

there's frost at my door.

The birds in the morning

don't sing anymore.

The grass in the valley

is starting to die,

and out in the darkness

the whippoorwills cry.

[Chorus:]

Alone and forsaken

by fate and by man.

Oh Lord if you hear me

please hold my hand,

oh please understand.

Oh where has she gone to,

oh where can she be.

She may have forsaken

some other like me.

She promised to honor,

to love and obey.

Each vow was a plaything

that she threw away.

[Chorus]

The darkness has fallen,

the sky has turned gray,

the hound in the distance

is starting to bay.

I wonder, I wonder

what she's thinking of.

Forsaken, forgotten,

without any love.

[Chorus]
