carolyn hester - i loved a lass lyrics
i loved a lass and i loved her so well
i hated all others who spoke of her ill
but now she’s rewarded me, well for my love
she’s gone to be wed to another
i saw my love, to the church for to go
with bride and bridemaidens they made a fine show
i followed them on with a heart full of woe
she’s gone to be wed to another
i saw my love, sit down for to dine
i sat down beside and i poured out the wine
i drank to the love who should’ve been mine
she’s gone to be wed to another
the men of yon forest they asked of me
“how many strawberries grow in the salt sea?”
i asked them back with a tear in me
“how many ships sail in the forest?”
oh, dig me a grave, and dig it so deep
and cover it over with flowereth so sweet
and i will turn in for to take a long sleep
and maybe in time, i’ll forget her
so they dug him a grave, and they dug it so deep
they covered it over with flowereth so sweet
and he has turned in for to take a long sleep
and maybe by now, he’s forgotten
