《The Blue Velvet Band》歌词

[00:00:00] The Blue Velvet - Hank Snow

[00:00:29] If you listen a story I＇ll tell you

[00:00:34] Of a girl who once lived in this land

[00:00:39] A girl who once was my sweetheart

[00:00:44] She was known as the Blue Velvet Band

[00:00:49] On her cheeks was the first flush of nature

[00:00:54] Her beauty it seemed to expand

[00:01:00] Her hair hung down in long tresses

[00:01:04] Tied back with a blue velvet band

[00:01:06] I can still see those tears as we parted

[00:01:13] Of my heart broken blue velvet band

[00:01:18] As I left her I told her

[00:01:20] I＇ll never come back to my home again

[00:01:27] Five years in the wide open spaces

[00:01:34] Was all that my poor heart could stand

[00:01:37] Every night as I lay on my pillow

[00:01:42] I would dream of my Blue Velvet Band

[00:01:44] Then one night as I lay down dreaming

[00:01:49] Of home and poor mother and dad

[00:01:57] Like a flash by my bedside was standing

[00:02:01] The form of my Blue Velvet Band

[00:02:06] I started next day for my darling

[00:02:11] Just to go back and make her my bride

[00:02:15] But as I reached the old country depot

[00:02:20] They told me my sweetheart had died

[00:02:25] They laid her to rest in the churchyard

[00:02:30] Midst the sweet summer flowers of the land

[00:02:34] On her finger was the ring I had bought her

[00:02:40] On her head was a blue velvet band
