On Springfield Mountain
There did dwell
A handsome youth
I loved him well

He gave to me
My life and end
He took it all
Away with him

On Springfield Mountain
I loved you well
More than you loved me
No more to tell

On Springfield Mountain
Rain will fall
Where once you loved me
Most of all

More than the starlight
Though it is true

Never as much
As I loved you

As heart grow cold
And love grows old
And memories fade in distant times

You'll love another
And another

We'll have the love
That once was mine

On Springfield Mountain
I loved you well
More than you loved me
No more to tell

More than the starlight
God knows it's true

Never as much
As I loved you

Never as much
As I loved you
