Woods and Fields

I’m going away love, I’m going to leave you
I’m gonna leave you here alone
I will sleep out in the darkness
The woods and fields are gonna be my home

Today there’s trouble in my heart
In my heart love abides no more
I see that sorrow is your best friend
And at your table I’ll sit no more

You say the wolves will come a-howlin’
They’ll come a-howlin’ at my door
But don’t you know we’re well acquainted
They’ve come a-callin’ many times before

When day is done, the night goes fallin’
The night goes fallin’ as it must
You could have seen that it was comin’
But you were busy kickin’ up the dust

I’m going away love, I’m going to leave you
I’m gonna leave you here alone
I will sleep out in the darkness
The woods and fields are gonna be my home
The woods and fields are gonna be my home
