Do you remember what we promised when we met, my love? |
|
There would never be a reason for regret, my love; |
|
The news has come to town, the news flies up and down, |
|
That another you have found to lie with you, my love. |
|
If the wind doth whisper by that it's not true, my love, |
|
And the seas could rise and cry that it's not you, my love; |
|
If the hills could only say that you were on your way, |
|
Then happy I would stay and be with you, my love. |
|
Ev'ry night I light a light for your return, my love, |
|
But the morning light's a lesson to be learned, my love; |
|
That I, who learned to trust, have been betrayed at last, |
|
Forever I'll be cursed for wanting you, my love. |
