[Verse 1]
Oh, the stars, they did shine
The night you swore that you'd be mine
And you promised always to be true and to be kind
On that Shenandoah hill where our love bloomed until
I went away and left those promises behind

[Chorus]
But when I rise from the timberline and call your name
Will you remember mine?
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine

[Verse 2]
To that place, I will go where the wildwood flowers grow
With a ribbon in my hair and a gown of calico
To those Shenandoah hills, I'll go back, I swear I will
To the sweetest kiss my lips will ever know

[Chorus]
But when I rise from the timberline and call your name
Will you remember mine?
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine

But when I rise from the timberline and call your name
Will you remember mine?
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine
But when I rise from the timberline and call your name
Will you remember mine?
And the sweetest kiss will be the tie that binds
Like the wild, wild rose and the columbine
