Midnight storm

We were wed in the hills of old Virginia
we were happy there together all alone
But I strayed away from my darling
Thru this dark stormy night I'm going home


    When the high wind blows from Heaven
    I whisper your name alone
    I'm on my way back darling
    As the midnight storm rolls on


When the cold dreary rain starts falling
And the clouds hide the bright golden moon
As I seen her face there before me
I can cry as I sing this lonesome tune


    * Refrain
