I was just a curly-haired mountain boynOn my waynPassing thru I heard a voicenWhisper good eveningnI turned to a shadownAnd saw her therenSo all alonenShe had those sad china eyesnThat sang each time she smilednAh, but the songnIt seemed to lingernSo long it deepenednMy love for hernUntil she called me nearnAnd then we waltzed to our heart beatnAll aroundnThe sea was swayingnThe breeze was prayingnNever to leave her alonenAlonenOh, the time just slipped on bynAnd with the timenSo did our lovenAh, her every movenJust like a fevernJust like a fevernBurnin' inside would not leave me
