| Lyrics |
| a. |
When the mist's a-rising and the rain is
falling and the wind is blowing cold across the moor,
I hear the voice of my darlin', the girl I loved and lost a year
ago. |
| b. |
Johnny remember me. |
| c. |
Well it's hard to believe I know, but I hear
her singing in the sighing of the wind,
Blowin' in the tree tops way above me. |
| d. |
Yes I'll always remember 'til the day I die,
I'll hear her cry... Johnny remember me. |
| e. |
Well some day I guess I'll find myself another
little girl to take the place of my true love. |
| f. |
But as long as I live I know I'll hear her
singing in the sighing of the wind,
Blowin' in the tree tops way above me. |
