THE BLUE VELVET BAND (3) If you listen, a story I'll tell you, Of a girl who once lived in this land A girl who once was my sweetheart She was known as the Blue Velvet Band On her cheeks was the first flush of nature Her beauty it seemed to expand, Her hair hung down in long tresses Tied back by the Blue Velvet Band I can still see those tears as we parted Of my heart broken Blue Velvet Band As I left her I told her I'd never come back to my old home again Five years in the wide open spaces Was all that my poor heart could stand Every night as I lay on my pillow I would dream of my Blue Velvet Band Then one night as I lay down dreaming Of home and dear Mother and Dad Like a flash by my bedside was standing The form of my Blue Velvet Band I started the next day for my darling To go back and make her my bride But as I reached the old country depot They told me my sweetheart had died They laid her to rest in the churchyard Mid the sweet summer flowers of the land On her finger was the ring I had bought her On her head was the Blue Velvet Band I hope this of use to other people, it seems to be quite a lot like other "The Blue Velvet Band" Lyrics but I thought it would be good to submit it to see if others remember the same lyrics. Perhaps there are a few lyrics missing. DT #313 filename[ BLUEVEL3 SH oct00 |
