Testo Two Constant Lovers - Steeleye Span
Testo della canzone Two Constant Lovers (Steeleye Span), tratta dall'album Now We Are Six Again
Now as I was a-walking down by the sea shore
Where the wind it did whistle and the waves they did roar
There I heard a fair maid make a terrible sound
Like the wind and the waves that did echo all around
Crying, "Oh, my love is gone
He's the youth I adore, and he's drowned
And I never will see him no more"
She'd a voice like a nightingale, skin like a dove
And the song that she sang, it was all about love
And when I asked her to marry me, "Oh marry me, please"
But the answer she gave me, "My love's drowned in the sea"
Crying, "Oh, my love is gone
He's the youth I adore, and he's drowned
And I never will see him no more"
So I said I had gold and silver beside
On a coach and six horses with me she could ride
But she said, "I will not marry you, nor prove you a wife
I'll be constant and true all the days I have life"
Crying, "Oh, my love is gone
He's the youth I adore, and he's drowned
And I never will see him no more"
Then she flung her arms wide and she took a great leap
From the cliffs that were high to the billows so deep
Saying, "The rocks of the ocean shall be my death bed
And the shrimps of the sea shall swim over my head"
Crying, "Oh, my love is gone
He's the youth I adore, and he's drowned
And I never will see him no more"
And now every night at six bells they appear
When the moon's shining bright and the stars they are clear
These two constant lovers with each others charms
Rolling over and over in each others arms
Crying, "Oh, my love is gone
He's the youth I adore, and he's drowned
And I never will see him no more
And I never will see him no more
And I never will see him no more"
