Lyrics:
Far away in sunny mountains Where the merry sunbeams play There I wandered through the clover Singing to a village maid
She was dearer than the dearest Ever loving kind and true And she wore beneath her bonnet Amber tresses tied with blue
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
Fate decreed that we be parted Ere the leaves of autumn fell Then two hearts were separated That had loved each other well
She was all I had to cherish Ever loving kind and true Now I see in every vision Amber tresses tied with blue
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
She was dearer than the dearest Ever loving kind and true And she wore beneath her bonnet Amber tresses tied with blue
