[00:01.10]Emmylou Harris - How She Could Sing The Wildwood Flower
[00:06.42]
[00:09.85]How she could sing the wildwood flower
[00:15.70]The orphan girl he would love so long
[00:22.11]In the end he knew she'd been his finest hour
[00:28.72]And all he has left of her is a song
[00:33.67]
[00:34.64]He first saw her
[00:37.76]Standing by a cabin door
[00:41.14]Her song was ringing
[00:44.50]Out in a voice so strong and sure
[00:47.34]To the lonesome valley
[00:51.02]He'd bring her there to be his bride
[00:54.30]Where they would live and work together
[00:57.29]Side by side
[00:59.88]
[01:00.17]She was his sunshine
[01:03.53]She was his moon and morning star
[01:06.95]His words would ring true
[01:10.62]On the chords of her guitar
[01:13.43]But he was driven
[01:16.50]And lost to her for days and days
[01:19.80]Till the lonesome valley finally drove her far away
[01:25.63]
[01:27.73]How she could sing the wildwood flower
[01:33.52]The orphan girl he would love so long
[01:39.79]In the end he knew she'd been his finest hour
[01:46.50]And all he has left of her is a song
[01:51.78]
[02:18.48]We all cling to
[02:21.57]As the years keep rolling on
[02:24.72]One single promise
[02:28.49]Of a love that's past and gone
[02:31.21]And that lonesome valley
[02:34.63]We all walk it by ourselves
[02:37.53]Where the wildwood flower
[02:39.86]Is a story we will tell
[02:43.60]
[02:45.53]How she could sing the wildwood flower
[02:51.38]The orphan girl he would love so long
[02:57.63]In the end he knew she'd been his finest hour
[03:04.29]And all he has left of her is a song
[03:16.34]How she could sing the wildwood flower
[03:22.48]All we have left of her is a song
[03:40.07]
