Weeping willow, weeping willow
Weeping freely for the wide world to see
Weeping willow, weeping willow
How I wish you'd do my weeping for me

Please, tell me, willow tree
How open must I be
I fear to share my precious tears with him
Weeping willow, hand some courage down to me

Weeping willow, weeping willow
Weeping freely for the wide world to see
Weeping willow, weeping willow
How I wish you'd do my weeping for me

Each time I look at you
I know what I must do
But I hide the hurt behind my pride again
Never crying, never trying to be true

Weeping willow, weeping willow
Weeping freely for the wide world to see
Weeping willow, weeping willow
How I wish you'd do my weeping for me

Weeping willow, weeping willow
Weeping freely for the wide world to see
Weeping willow, weeping willow
How I wish you'd do my weeping for me
