Love and Loss
Oh, the ballad of love and loss
A tale that's oft been told
Of hearts that break and love that's lost
Leaves a heavy weight on one's soul
Once, I loved a fair maiden
Her beauty like the morning sun
But she left me, without warning
And my heart was undone
I wander now, through fields and forests
Searching for what I've lost
But she's gone, and I am left with
The ballad of love and loss
The wind sings through the branches
Of the trees that line the way
But all it brings is sorrow
As I think of her each day
Oh, the ballad of love and loss
A sorrowful song to sing
But though my heart may be broken
I'll keep on living
For one day, I'll find my way
To a love that's pure and true
And the ballad of love and loss
Will be but a distant memory, a hue.
