I told the brook that runs down through the valley

A secret my best friend never knew

The brook told the trees and the trees told the breeze

That I was in love with you



The trees told told the flowers hiding there by the hilltop

The clouds told the moon that shone above

So angry yet blue when they found out that you

And your heart had another love



The brook became angry and changed to a river

Rushing so madly along

The soft summer breeze that played tag with the trees

Became so wild and so strong



The bashful white flowers hiding there by the hilltop

Grew dark when the rain came pouring down

Their hearts couldn't hide all the tears that were cried

And had carpeted on the ground



The storm passed gone over there's sunshine again

The chains that held me are now gone

The trees wave hello as I stand here below

And the brook sings the sweetest song



The bashful white flowers are again by the hilltop

The sun and the moon are still my friends

I promise that there'll be no more heartaches for me

Till I fall in love again
