cecil armstrong gibbs - a ballad maker lyrics

Loading...

once i loved a maiden fair
over the hills and far away
lands she had and lovers to spare
over the hills and far away

and i was stooped and troubled sore
and my face was pale, and the coat i wore
was thin as my supper the night before
over the hills and far away

once i passed in the autumn late
over the hills and far away
her bawn and barn and painted gate
over the hills and far away
she was leaning there in the twilight sp+ce
sweet sorrow was on her fair young face
and hеr wistful eyes werе away from the place
over the hills and far away

maybe she thought as she watched me come
over the hills and far away
with my awkward stride and my face so glum
over the hills and far away

spite of his stoop, he still is young
they say he goes the shee among
ballads he makes; i’ve heard them sung
over the hills and far away

she gave me good+night in gentle wise
over the hills and far away
shyly lifting to mine, dark eyes
over the hills and far away

what could i do but stop and speak
and she no longer proud, but meek?
she plucked me a rose like her wild+rose cheek ++
over the hills and far away

to+morrow mavourneen a sleeveen weds
over the hills and far away
with corn in haggard and cattle in sheds
over the hills and far away
and i who have lost her, the dear, the rare ++
well, i got me this ballad to sing at the fair
twill bring enough money to drown my care
over the hills and far away
