In the Shadow of the Pines
We had wandered in the 4 shadow of the 1 pines
The moon looked down on you and 5 me
1 And a darkness stole a 4 cross the summer 1 sky
And a shadow came be- 5 tween my love and 1 me
Chorus
Oh, 4 darling, come love me as be- 1 fore
Come back to leave me never- 5 more
At that 1 spot I'm sad and lonely and the 4 sun no longer 1 shines
Come and meet me in the 5 shadow of the 1 pines
Oh, you went away and left me and my tears I could not hide
You went away and not a word was said
While my throbbing heart was breaking underneath its load of pride
And the pine trees sobbed in pity o'er my head
All our future is o'er-shadowed by the darkness of despair
And across life's path the sun no longer shines
Oh, I'd give this whole world gladly once again to meet her there
And reunite in the shadow of the pines
