Subject: RE: That bird of song From: topical tom Date: 22 Jun 17 - 12:22 PM I've always loved singing.I have dozens{hundreds maybe} of songs in my head ans I know very few with complete lyrics though I could find many on the computer.I used to belong to a song circle which was great fun, but it folded.I do attend local live music performances and have attended many Canadian and American folk festivals.Music, especially folk, blues, country and bluegrass is a central part of my life. Unfortunately I was never able to perform well on an instrument. |

Subject: RE: That bird of song From: leeneia Date: 20 Jun 17 - 09:01 AM from Bluegrasslyrics.com 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'll never see again How I long for the day when I shall see 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 whippoorwill to sing When I left with the thought I'd be returning Soon to her with the wealth and joy I'd bring I returned but too late and now I'm yearning She is gone and in loneliness I 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 whippoorwill to sing |
Subject: That bird of song From: topical tom Date: 19 Jun 17 - 08:59 PM I recall once again a song about the whippoorwill and again I can remember only some lines of the song.Those are .......U shall meet her Though it be where the angels sweetly sing She is mine and the thought of her is sweeter When it's time for the ?whippoorwill to sing. Could someone please find the complete lyrics. I Do know the melody! |
