歌曲歌詞
In the spring of 1856with the snow still on the ground
Two little boys were lost in the mountains above the town
The father went out hunting the boys had stayed behind
While mother tended to her chores they wandered from her side.
The two had gone to follow him and lost their way instead
By dusk the boys had not been found and fear had turned to dread
Two-hundred men had gathered there to comb the mountain side
The fires were built on the highest peak in hopes they'd see the light.
Oh,mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
The day is almost over,soon it will be night
We're so cold and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
We promise not to stray again from our cabin door.
Now Jacob Diverd woke one night from a strange and erie dream
He saw a path between two hills near a dark and swollen stream
He told his wife he saw the boys huddled close beside a log
For two more nights the dream returned this vision sent from God.
Oh,mommy and daddy why can't you hear our cries
The day is almost over,soon it will be night
We're so cold and hungry and our feet are tired and sore
