Don't leave me alone
on Chapel Hill
In the silver mist,
in the midnight chill.
Oh, the moon is rising
and the night is still.
Don't leave me alone
on Chapel Hill

They placed the flowers on me
on Chapel Hill.
I'm gonna be so lonely
on Chapel Hill
I wanna live in the sunshine,
and feel the autumn chill.
Don't leave me alone
on Chapel Hill

(Chorus)
Can't you hear me, mama?
Can't you hear me cry?
Don't walk away, papa
Don't say goodbye.
Don't you know I love you,
and I always will?
Don't leave me alone tonight
on Chapel Hill

Oh, I feel so afraid
on Chapel Hill,
As the voices fade
from Chapel Hill.
And now the service is over,
and everything's still.
And I'm all alone
on Chapel Hill

(Repeat chorus;
"Can't you hear me mama...
Don't leave me alone on Chapel Hill...")
