frank harte - i wonder what's keeping my true love lyrics

[verse 1]
oh, i wonder what is keeping my true love tonight?
i wonder what is keeping her out of my sight?
it is little she knows of the pain i endure
or he would not astray from me this night i am sure

[verse 2]
oh love, are you coming your cause to advance
oh love, are you waiting for a far better chance
or have you got a sweetheart laid by you in store
and you are coming to tell you that you love me no more

[verse 3]
oh love, i’m not a+coming my cause to advance
oh love, i’m not waiting for a far better chance
but i have a sweetheart laid by me in store
and i am coming to tell you that i lovе you no more

[verse 4]
oh ’tis i can love lightly and i can love long
and ’tis i can lovе the old love till a new love comes on
i just said i loved you for to set your mind at ease
and when you are far from me, i will love whom i please

[verse 5]
well i have gold in my pocket and i’ve love in my heart
but i can’t love a maiden who has got two sweethearts
your love lies as lightly as the dew upon the th+rn
that comes in the evening, goes away in the morn’
[verse 6]
green grass it grows bonnie, spring water runs clear
i am weary and a+lonesome for the love of my dear
you are my first and false true love but ’tis lately i knew;
that the fonder i loved you, well the falser you grew

[verse 7]
so come all of you you young men take a warning by me
and it’s don’t build your nest on the top of a tree
for the leaves they will wither and the branches decay
and like a false hearted young maid, they will soon fade away
