Cara Dillon - The Lonesome Scenes Of Winter Lyrics
As the lonesome scenes of winter in stormy winds do blowClouds around the centre inclined to frost and snowYou're the boy that I have chosen to be my only dearYour scornful heart is frozen and drifted far I fearOne night I went to se my love, but he proved most scornfullyI asked him if he'd marry me, but he would not marry meThe night it is far spent, my love, it's near the break of dayAnd I'm waiting for your answer, my dear, what do you say?I can but plainly tell you, I lead a single lifeI never thought it fitting that you should be my wifeSo take a civil answer and for yourself provideI have another sweetheart and you I have laid asideNow my mind is changing that old love for newThis wide and lonesome valley I mean to ramble thru'In search of someone handsome that might my fancy fillThat world is wide and lonesome, if he don't another will
