Song | Under the Greenwood Tree |
Artist | Amazing Blondel |
Album | Evensong |
Gladwin | |
Dawn draws near and you rise wearily | |
From my bed in search of your own | |
As you go my thoughts turn drearily | |
To the empty hours I shall spend alone | |
Chorus: | |
If you love me come discreetly | |
Down to meet me under the greenwood tree | |
(Repeat) | |
Thrushes sing | |
The breeze wanders aimlessly | |
Through the weeping willows and the oak | |
Memories of the nights we've spent shamelessly | |
Locked in love as cattle to their yoke | |
Chorus | |
Middle 8 | |
Till Doomsday we’ll meet this way | |
Cursed am I to court such a lover | |
Who is not betrothed to me | |
For her dowry lies with another | |
And no sadder wife will there be | |
Chorus |
