Magpie Lane - The Constant Lovers lyrics
Now as I was a walking down by the sea shore Where the wind it did whistle, and the waves they did roar, There I head a fair maid make a terrible sound Like the wind and the waves that did echo around. Crying. "O, my love is gone, He's the youth that I adore, He's gone and I never shall see him no more." She'd a voice like a nightengale, skin like a dove And the song that she sang, it was all about love. When I asked her to marry me, marry me please, But the answer she gave: "My love's drowned in the sea". I said I had gold and i'd silver beside On a coach and six horses with me she could ride She said, "i'll not marry nor yet prove a wife I'll be constant and true all the days i'll have life". Then she flung her arms wide and she took a great leap From the cliffs that were high to the billows so deep Saying "the rocks of the ocean shall be my death bed And the shrimps os the sea shall swim over my head." And now every night at six bells they appear When the moon it is shining and the stars they are clear These two constant lovers with each other's charms Rolling over and over in each others arms. [Chorus x 2] |
