neil innes - folk song lyrics
said the broth of a boy to a slip of a girl
you are the flowers, the forest
and the birds that sing
but how can i ask you to marry me?
when i have no gold for a wedding ring?
and she said:
though you say all god’s gifts are in me
i cannot give myself to you
your words of love bring me no comfort
said the slip of a girl to the broth of a boy
and she turned he head away
and made no sound
as the stars shone down
all the stars shone down
on the slip of a girl
and the broth of a boy…
said the broth of a boy to a slip of a girl
you are the flowers, the forest
and the birds that sing
i will sail the seven seas and seek my fortunе
when i return i’ll give you evеrything
and she said:
“though you say all god’s gifts are in me
i cannot give myself to you
your words of love bring me no comfort”
said the slip of a girl to the broth of a boy
once more she turned away
and made no sound
as the stars shone down
all the stars shone down
on the slip of a girl
and the broth of a boy…
said the broth of a boy to a slip of a girl
though you say you cannot be my wife
you are still the flowers, the forest
and the birds that sing
i will love no other for the rest of my life
and she said:
“though you say all god’s gifts are in me
now i can give myself to you
love has no need for gold nor silver”
said the slip of a girl to the broth of a boy
and as he took her hand
all the stars shone down
all the stars shone down
all the stars shone down
on the slip of a girl
and the broth of a boy
on the slip of a girl
and the broth of a boy…
