Where be it now
The one that you love,
Her eyes sparkle not
Lips frozen in the moment
The lonesome dove

At peace in sleep
The breathe comes not
Gone from the body
All that I love
And says no more
The Lonesome dove.

Spread your wings
And fly far away
For no more the torments
Nor pressures of life
Forever at rest
The Lonesome dove

I love you most
My flower of life
My reason for existing
Cut short from above
And I love you still
Though miss you so
Never to return
The lonesome dove

And here we stand
in rain and sun
wondering on the breeze
of the one i so miss.
Under the stars and in the mist
Prey you'll Fly back to me just once
For nothing but a kiss
The Lonesome dove.
