《Fair Margaret & Sweet William》歌词

[00:02:53] lady margret was standing in her own room door

[00:02:53] a comb in her long yellow hair

[00:02:53] when who did she spy but sweet william and his bride

[00:02:53] as to the churchyard they drew near

[00:02:53] the day passed away and the night coming on

[00:02:53] most of the men were asleep

[00:02:53] lady margret appeared all dressed in white

[00:02:53] standing at his bed feet

[00:02:53] she said "how do you like your bed? and how do you like your sheet?

[00:02:53] and how do you like your fair, young bride

[00:02:53] that's laying in your arms asleep?"

[00:02:53] he said "very well do i like my bed.

[00:02:53] much better do i like my sheet

[00:02:53] but most of all that fair, young girl

[00:02:53] standing at my bed feet"

[00:02:53] then once he kissed her lily white hand

[00:02:53] and twice he kissed her cheek

[00:02:53] three times he kissed her cold corpsy lips

[00:02:53] then he fell into her arms asleep

[00:02:53] when the night passed away and the day came on

[00:02:53] and into the morning light

[00:02:53] sweet william said "i'm troubled in my head

[00:02:53] 2

[00:02:53] such dreams, such dreams as these

[00:02:53] i know they mean no good

[00:02:53] for i dreamed that my bower was full of red swine

[00:02:53] and my bride's bed full of blood"

[00:02:53] he asked "is lady margret in her room?

[00:02:53] or is she out in the hall?"

[00:02:53] but lady margret lay in a cold, black coffin

[00:02:53] with her face turned to the wall

[00:02:53] throw back, throw back those snow white robe

[00:02:53] be they ever so fine

[00:02:53] and let me kiss those cold corpsy lips

[00:02:53] for i know they'll never kiss mine

[00:02:53] then once he kissed her lily white hand

[00:02:53] and twice he kissed her cheek

[00:02:53] three times he kissed her cold corpsy lips then he fell into her arms asleep
