Song language: English
When It's Time for the Whippoorwill to Sing |
Oh the stars and the silver moon is shining |
All around is the sweetness of the spring |
But I’m sad and in loneliness, I’m pining |
For the one I know I will never see again |
Oh I long for the day when I shall meet her |
If it be where the angels sweetly sing |
She is mine and the thought of her grows sweeter |
When it’s time for the whipporwills to sing |
When I left with the thought I’d be returning |
Soon to her with the welcome joy I bring |
I return, but too late, and now I’m yearning |
She is gone and in loneliness, I sing |
Oh I long for the day when I shall meet her |
If it be where the angels sweetly sing |
She is mine and the thought of her grows sweeter |
When it’s time for the whipporwills to sing |
I remember the night she made the promise |
And these words said to me, great joy did bring |
I’ll be true and you know you’ll find me waiting |
When it’s time for the whipporwills to sing |
Oh I long for the day when I shall meet her |
If it be where the angels sweetly sing |
She is mine and the thought of her grows sweeter |
When it’s time for the whipporwills to sing |
