If you come back in Summer
And find that I am gone
Just ask the flowers
Why I traveled on
And if you come back in winter
When cold freezes blood
Just ask the north wind
Which way I did go
Ask the hills I walked alone
Ask the brook I sat beside
Ask them all how long I waited
Ask them all how much I cried
And if you come back in summer
In springtime, or in fall
Ask for me when you come back
If you come back at all
