sarah jane scouten - chaste tree and pennyroyal lyrics

[verse 1]
come in and close the door, my child
lean close to me and harken
heave and sigh, come and go
i am sick and very sick
your father loves another and she goes with child
heave and sigh, come and go

[verse 2]
by the skin of your right hand, pull flowers
of pennyroyal and bring them me
heave and sigh, come and go
climb the wall around the abbey
pull chaste tree from the garden in your leather sheath
heave and sigh, come and go
eventide, new moon glow

[verse 3]
on the way to see the father and lady
the child came upon a liquor still
heave and sigh, come and go
and there he told the story to the moonshiner
who made the flowers quicker, still
heave and sigh, come and go
eventide, half+moon grow
[verse 4]
father dear, i’ve brought a gift for the lady
whose face i see is pale and wan
heave and sigh, come and go
and i have brought to you a gift, dear father
and both shall keep you safe from harm
heave and sigh, come and go
eventide, full moon glow

[verse 5]
blossoms from the wood for the lady
who took sick and died that very night
heave and sigh, come and go
and flowers from the garden for the husband
whose love shall please the maids no more
heave and sigh, come and go
eventide, no moon glow

[verse 6]
for in a cassock in the abbey, he sweeps
the graves of the lady and child unborn
heave and sigh, come and go
and in the centre of the town, the mother
and child were hung with none to mourn
heave and sigh, come and go
eventide, new moon glow
