In the shadow of the pine



We wandered beneath the shadows of the pine my love and I
While the winds were blowing gently o'er the sea
Then a sad and fateful darkness strolled across the stormy sky
And a shadow came between my love and I



You ask me for those letters taht you wrote so long ago
But for them I could not give to you my dear
Let me keep them to remember of those days of long ago
Let my keep them to remember you my dear



    Come back to me sweetheart and love me as before
    Beg, beg to me sweetheart and leave me never more
    For life's dark pathway the sun no longer shines
    Come love and meet me in the shadows of the pain



You took the ring I gave you not one glance you cast at me
As you held the jewel twinkling in your hand
And then you turned and cast it in the waters of the sea
While the waves were splashing idly on the sand



  * Refrain
