Forget Me Not

Forget me not 

The drums are calling 

Make me a bed

Of forget me nots 

When the lilies bloom 

And black leaves are falling 

Our heart strings will be tied up

In one never forget me knot

I’ve left you my best Chambray shirt for when the wind comes howling 

I’ve left my bible by the bed in case the devil gets ya doubting 

Don’t let a local boy come by and steal away your fancy 

Keep a candle burning and don't let him taste my brandy 

Forget me not 

Think of me often 

When you lay down

In forget me nots 

When the lilies bloom 

And black leaves are falling 

Our heart strings will be tied up

In one never forget me knot

I left my heart’s blood spilling out in a field of clover

I’ll be the shadow on the ground like a cloud when it flies over

Forget me not 

My Saviour’s calling 

He wears a crown

Of forget me nots 

When the lilies bloom 

And black leaves are falling 

Our heart strings will be tied up

In one never forget me knot
