Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Cold blows the wind over my true love
Soft father drops of rain
I never had but one true love
And green-wood he lies slain
[Verse 2]
I'll do as much for my true love
As any young girl may
I'll sit and mourn all on his grave
For twelve months and a day
[Verse 3]
Will twelve months and a day be enough
The dead began to speak
You said so weeping on my grave
And will not let me sleep
[Verse 4]
Tis I my love sits on your grave
And will not let you sleep
I crave one kiss off your clay cold lips
And that is all I seek
[Verse 5]
You crave one kiss off my clay cold lips
My breath smells earthy strong
And if you have one kiss of me
Your time will not belong
[Verse 6]
It was down in yonder garden green
While where we used to walk
A fairest flower that e'er I spied
Has withered to stalk
[Verse 7]
The stalk has withered dry my dear
So share our love to keep
So make yourself content my love
Tell death calls you awake
