acapella onion - the unquiet grave lyrics
cold blows the wind to my true love and gently drops the rain
i only had but one true love and in greenwood she lies slain
i’ll do as much for my true love as any young girl may
i’ll sit and mourn upon her grave for twelve month and a day
when the twelve months and one day had passed her ghost began to speak
“why sittest thou all on my grave and will not let me sleep?”
there is one thing that i want sweetheart, there is one thing that i crave
and that is a kiss from your lily white lips, then i’ll go from your grave
my lips they are as cold as clay, my brеath smells earthy strong
and if you kiss my cold clay lips, your days they won’t bе long
go fetch me water from the desert and blood from out of stone
go fetch me milk from a fair maid’s breast that a young man never has known
t’was down in cupid’s garden where you and i would walk
the finest flower that ever i saw is withered to a stalk
the stalk is withered and dry sweetheart, the flower will never return
and since i lost my one true love, what can i do but mourn
when shall we meet again, sweetheart, when shall me meet again?
when the old dead leaves that fall from the trees are green and spring up again
when shall we meet again, sweetheart, when shall me meet again?
when the old dead leaves that fall from the trees are green and spring up again
