Paroles de Down From Dover

Dolly Parton
I know this dress Im wearing doesnt hide the secret I have tried concealing
When he left he promised me that hed be back by the time it was revealing
The sun behind a cloud just casts the crawling shadow oer the fields of clover
And time is running out for me I wish that he would hurry down from dover
Hes been gone so long when he left the snow was deep upon the ground
And I have seen a spring and summer pass and now the leaves are turning brown
And any time a tiny face will show itself cause waitings almost over
But I wont have a name to give it if he doesnt hurry down from dover
My folks werent understanding when they found out they sent me from the home place
My daddy said if folks found out hed be ashamed to ever show his face
My mamma said I was a fool and she did not believe it when I told her
That everything would be all right cause soon he would be coming down from dover
I loved him more than anything and I could not refuse him when he needed me
He was the only one Id loved and I just cant believe that he was using me
He couldnt leave me here like this I know it cant be so it cant be over
He wouldnt make me go through this so long, oh hell be coming down from dover
My body aches the time is here its lonely in this place where Im lyin
Our baby has been born but somethings wrong its much too still I hear no cryin
I guess in some strange way she knew shed never have a fathers arms to hold her
And dying was her way of telling me he wasnt coming down from dover
