Sweet William Songtext
von Nat King Cole

Sweet William was sweet
On his lily
At the valley
And Lily loved Sweet William too
And hour by hour
Love brought to each flower
The love that is known to very few
Then one day a little child at play
Saw Lily there and carried her away
Far away
Now William is lonely
And longs for his only
And that′s why the willow weeps too So should you wake some morning
To a glistening dawning
It's teardrops and not morning dew
Then one day a little child at play
Saw Lily there and carried her away
Far away
Now William is lonely
And longs for his only
And that′s why the willow weeps too
So should you wake some morning
To a glistening dawning
It's teardrops and not morning dew.
