[Verse 1]
If you're traveling to the north country fair
Where the wind hits heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine

[Verse 2]
If you're going where the snowflakes storm
Where the rivers freeze and summer ends
Please see for me she's wearing a coat so warm
To keep her from the howlin' wind

[Verse 3]
See for me that her hair's hanging long
That it rolls and flows all down her breast
Yes, see for me if her hair's hanging long
'Cause that's the way I remember her best

[Bridge]
Yes, sometimes I'm a-wonderin'
If she remembers me at all
Oftentimes I've hoped, I've prayed
In the darkness of my night
Through the brightness of my day

[Verse 1, Reprise]
So if you're travelin' to the north country fair
Where the wind hits heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
'Cause she once was a true love of mine
[Outro]
Yeah, she once was a true love of mine
She once was a true love of mine
She once was a true love of mine
