Under the balcony I sang her my song
Next to the moonlit stream I strummed as she strolled along
Yes, thought trickled through my head, like water down a stream of how love evaded me, evaded me
Where the willows weep I weep, and like a sheep my heart bleats for love,
Love, love, love

Beautiful lovely roses now withered in my hand
Towards love I'm drawn by hope yet now it's just a single strand
Yes love she has surely gone she's left like a leaf floating down this quiet stream, down this quiet stream
Where the willows weep I weep and like a sheep my heart bleats for love,
Love, love, love
