Viewing Lyrics for Down From Dover:
| | | Artist: | Dolly Parton |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Down From Dover | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 124 | | | | Lyrics: | I know this dress i'm wearing doesn't hide the secret i have tried concealing
When he left he
promised me that he'd be back by the time it was revealing
The sun behind a cloud just casts
the crawling shadow o'er the fields of clover
And time is running out for me i wish that he
would hurry down from dover
He's been gone so long when he left the snow was deep upon the
ground
And i have seen a spring and summer pass and now the leaves are turning brown
And
any time a tiny face will show itself 'cause waiting's almost over
But i won't have a name to
give it if he doesn't hurry down from dover
My folks weren't understanding when they
found out they sent me from the home place
My daddy said if folks found out he'd be ashamed to
ever show his face
My mamma said i was a fool and she did not believe it when i told her
That everything would be all right 'cause soon he would be coming down from dover
I loved
him more than anything and i could not refuse him when he needed me
He was the only one i'd
loved and i just can't believe that he was using me
He couldn't leave me here like this i know
it can't be so it can't be over
He wouldn't make me go through this so long, oh he'll be coming
down from dover
My body aches the time is here it's lonely in this place where i'm
lyin'
Our baby has been born but something's wrong it's much too still i hear no cryin'
I
guess in some strange way she knew she'd never have a father's arms to hold her
And dying was
her way of telling me he wasn't coming down from dover | | | |
