[00:13.50] Once there was an honest man
[00:17.41] Fallen in love with a bonnie maid
[00:22.78] He spread gold and flowers in her hair
[00:26.87] A painted veil, she's a painted veil
[00:30.25] He walks in her steps, spies on her dreams
[00:35.26] Builds a gilded cage
[00:39.71] He's crazy in love with a stranger
[00:44.24] This is a fancy in a mirror
[00:49.44] He adores her, she's a bird in a cage
[00:53.55] And years have gone in despair, his love is vain
[00:58.21] Because he's a blind man, he don't know her name
[01:02.93] Falling in love with a shadow, a painted veil, a painted veil
[01:18.26] Once there was a noble man
[01:22.11] Fallen in love with a wealthy maid
[01:27.50] He stole gold and diamonds from her hands
[01:31.55] A painted veil, it's a painted veil
[01:34.81] And he locks her in silence and shade
[01:39.91] Builds a gilded cage
[01:44.58] He's crazy in love with a stranger
[01:48.82] This is a fancy in a mirror
[01:54.05] He adores her, she's a bird in a cage
[01:58.21] And years have gone in despair, his love is vain
[02:02.65] Because he's a blind man, he don't know her name
[02:07.66] Falling in love with a shadow, a painted veil, a painted veil
[02:23.13] Once there was a young pretty maid
[02:26.82] She saw her face on the bright water
[02:32.04] She spent days and years staring at herself
[02:36.20] A painted veil, she's a painted veil
[02:39.97] She's lost her soul, she's lost her dreams
[02:44.61] Building a gilded cage
[02:49.33] She's crazy in love with a stranger
[02:53.56] This is a fancy in a mirror
[02:58.76] I adore her, she's a bird in a cage
[03:02.96] The years have gone in despair, my love is vain
[03:07.70] Because she's a blind lady, she don't know my name
[03:12.40] Falling in love with a shadow, a painted veil, a painted veil
