kathryn roberts & sean lakeman - the street of the cats who dance lyrics
my love he came, my love he stayed, glad to be back on land
i held him close, he held me tight
we never heard the bells sound
with loving words and gentle hands
he took his leave on that night
and next time he came from sea i would be his own wife
deep beneath the grey stone walls in kennels secret and strong
they kept chained up, a pack of dogs
trained to hunt all night long
but the rain has washed the cobbles clean
left no trace of blood where the fight had been
to mark the spot where my love did fall
in the shadow of the city wall
down in the street of the cats who dance
down in the street of the cats who dance
caught outside after ten bells the curfew dogs they gave chase
his sword could serve him no defence
they tore his legs and his face
he ran as far as he could go to the very highest ramparts
the starving hounds were at his feet
lured by the beat of his heart
in exhaustion and despair, my love leapt into the sea
still they came, one step behind, and took my lover from me
within two days the law was changed but for me it’s too late
the dogs were poisoned and replaced with many high iron gates
my love he came, my love is gone, my love has forfeit his life
for the counting of ten bells, now i’ll be no mans wife
