White Dove

In the deep rolling hills of old Virginia
There's a place I love too well
Where I spent many days of my childhood
In the cabin where we loved so well

(Chorus)
White dove will mourn in sorrow
The willows will hang their head
I'll live my life in sorrow
Since mother and daddy are dead

We were all so happy there together
In our peaceful little mountain home
But the angels needed her in Heaven;
Now she sings around the great white throne

As the years roll by, I often wonder
If we'll ever be together someday
And each night as I wander to the graveyard
Darkness finds me where I kneel to pray
