A Last Wish
The moon rises high oe’r the cabin,
A symbol of the night,
And Bill, old pal, I’m passing,
And hold my hand so tight.
For there’s just one thing to tell you,
A lastly wish, old pard,
And I know that you will grant it,
Although it may seem hard.
There’s a spot way out in the wood
land, Bill,
Where the weeping willows grow,
And there’s one that’s taller than
the rest, Bill,
A place that we well know.
For there we used to wander, Bill,
In happiness or in pain,
For the solitude of the wilds, Bill,
Will heal the wounds again.
It was there that the hopes of a for
tune dream,
Was blasted ali to hell,
And we told our story to the wild
erness,
For the willows couldn’t tell.
To bury me there is my last request,
In that weeping willows fold,
For there I will rest in peace, Bill,
With those memories of old.
