Over Yonder in the Graveyard

Over yonder in the graveyard
Where the wild, wild flowers grow
Oh, there she lay, my own true lover
She’s gone from me forever more

Fairer than the sweetest flowers
Restless as the wildest wind
Born with a love, deep as the ocean
That was the girl that I did win

I left her there back in the mountains
To see the world, riches to gain
When I returned, no earthly trеasures
Could ease this hеart, so full of pain

Way up high upon that mountain
Beneath that little mound of clay
The girl that I’d returned to marry
So still among the flowers she lay

I’ll go away, and I will wander
Lay aside my earthly gains
And I’ll not end a man with riches
Undone in sorrow I will remain
Undone in sorrow I will remain
