Billy Strings - Cabin Song
Let me walk through them hills all alone
Where your love still wanders through the valley
And the vines have covered up our cabin home
Far away in a great Northern forest
There's a place where I once loved a girl/so well(?)
And I feel like my poor heart is breaking
For the girl that I used to love so well
Takе me back to the woods wherе she left me
Let me walk through them hills all alone
Where your love still wanders through the valley
And the vines have covered up our cabin home
Well the years fly by just like an eagle
And it's castin' a shadow down below
My memories are piercin' like a needle
And I know that I got nowhere left to go
Take me back to the woods where she left me
Let me walk through them hills all alone
Where your love still wanders through the valley
And the vines have covered up our cabin home
If I ever make it back to our cabin
Well, that's where I wanna be forever more
When I die, you can lay me there beside her
Where the vines have covered up the door
Take me back to the woods where she left me
Let me walk through them hills all alone
Where your love still wanders through the valley
And the vines have covered up our cabin home
