Maple on the Hill In a quiet country village stood a maple on the hill Where I sat with my Geneva long ago As the stars were shining brightly we could hear the whippoorwill As we sat beneath the maple on the hill We would sing love song together while the birds had gone to rest We would listen to the murmur o'er the hill Will you love me little darling as you did as you did those starry nights As we sat beneath the maple on the hill Don't forget me, little darling when they lay me down to die Just one little wish, darling that I pray As you linger there in sadness thinking, darlig, of the past Lay your teardrops kiss the floweres on my grave I will soon be with the angels on that bright and peaceful shore Even now I hear them coming o'er the hill Soon goodbye my little darling, it is time for us to part I must leave you and that maple on the hill GG apr97
