sandy denny – east virginia (home recording 1966) lyrics
[verse 1]
i was born in east virginia
north carolina i did go
there i met the fairest maiden
but her name i do not know
[verse 2]
her hair, it was a bright+some colour
and her cheeks were rosy red
on her breast she wore white lilies
all the tears that i have shed
[verse 3]
in my heart you are my darling
at my door you’re welcome in
at my gate i’ll always meet you
if your love i could only win
[verse 4]
in the night i’m dreaming of you
in the day i find no rest
just the thought of you, my darling
sends aching pains all through my breast
[verse 5]
i’d rather be in some dark holler
whеre the sun refusеd to shine
than to see you with another one, darling
to know you never will be mine
[verse 6]
oh, when i’m dead and in my coffin
with my face towards the sun
come and look upon me, darling
see the deed that you have done
