My Love
Traditional

lyrics

Do you remember what we promised when we met, my love?
There would never be a reason for regret, my love;
But news has come to town, bad news flies up and down,
That another you have found to lie with you, my love.

If the wind would whisper by that it's not you, my love,
If the seas would rise and cry that it's not true, my love;
If the hills could only say that you were on your way,
Then happy I would be and stay with you, my love.

Ev'ry night I light a lamp for your return, my love,
But the morning light's a lesson to be learned, my love;
That I, who've learned to trust, have been betrayed in lust,
Forevermore be cursed for wanting you, my love.

Do you remember what we promised when we met, my love?
There would never be a reason for regret, my love;
But news has come to town, bad news flies up and down,
That another you have found to lie with you, my love.
That another you have found to lie with you, my love.
