Dolly Parton - Down From Dover Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I know this dress Im wearing doesnt hide the secret I have tried concealing
  • When he left he promised me that hed be back by the time it was revealing
  • The sun behind a cloud just casts the crawling shadow oer the fields of clover
  • And time is running out for me I wish that he would hurry down from dover
  • Hes been gone so long when he left the snow was deep upon the ground
  • And I have seen a spring and summer pass and now the leaves are turning brown
  • And any time a tiny face will show itself cause waitings almost over
  • But I wont have a name to give it if he doesnt hurry down from dover
  • My folks werent understanding when they found out they sent me from the home place
  • My daddy said if folks found out hed be ashamed to ever show his face
  • My mamma said I was a fool and she did not believe it when I told her
  • That everything would be all right cause soon he would be coming down from dover
  • I loved him more than anything and I could not refuse him when he needed me
  • He was the only one Id loved and I just cant believe that he was using me
  • He couldnt leave me here like this I know it cant be so it cant be over
  • He wouldnt make me go through this so long, oh hell be coming down from dover
  • My body aches the time is here its lonely in this place where Im lyin
  • Our baby has been born but somethings wrong its much too still I hear no cryin
  • I guess in some strange way she knew shed never have a fathers arms to hold her
  • And dying was her way of telling me he wasnt coming down from dover
