Whispering Pines

The snowflakes fall as winter comes
And time just seems to fly
Is it the loneliness in me
That makes me want to cry?
My heart is sad, like a mourning dove
That's lost its mate in flight
Hear the cooing of his lonely heart
Through the stillness of the night

Whispering pines, whispering pines
Tell me, is it so?
Whispering pines, whispering pines
You're the one who knows
My darling is gone, oh she's gone
And I need your sympathy
Whispering pines, send my baby back to me

See that squirrel up in the tree
His mate there on the ground
Hear their barking call of love
For the happiness they found
Is my love, still my love?
Oh, this I've go to know
Send a message by the wind
Because I love her so

Whispering pines, whispering pines
Tell me, is it so?
Whispering pines, whispering pines
You're the one who knows
My darling is gone, oh she's gone
And I need your sympathy
Whispering pines, send my baby back to me
