Subject: Lyr Add: MY FLOWER MY COMPANION AND ME
Oh the flowers that I loved in the wildwood They have sent off their beautiful blooms And the many dear friends of my childhood Have slumbered for years in their tombs It's no wonder I'm broken-hearted Stricken with sorry to be We have met we have loved we have parted Oh my flower my companion and me
Oh the rose that I loved I remember And the smile that I never more shall see Since the cold bitter winds of December Stole my flower my companion from me
It's no wonder I'm broken-hearted Stricken with sorry to be We have met we have loved we have parted Oh my flower my companion and me
Ah but think of that bright shiny morning When our spirits from earth shall be free And we meet those we've loved in that dawning Oh my flower my companion and me
It's no wonder I'm broken-hearted Stricken with sorry to be We have met we have loved we have parted Oh my flower my companion and me
It's no wonder I'm broken-hearted Stricken with sorry to be We have met we have loved we have parted Oh my flower my companion and me
We have met we have loved we have parted Oh my flower my companion and me

Helen has a fund of the most wonderful songs and this she sang to us in her house in the woods in Vermont with humming birds on the porch. One of those memories which cling. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transcription by Garry Gillard
