Round her neck, she wore a yellow ribbon,
She wore it in the springtime, and in the month of May,
And if you asked her why she always wore it,
She`d tell you for her lover who was far, far away.
Far away, far away, She`d tell you for her lover who
was far, far away.
Round her neck she wore a golden locket,
She wore it in the night time and wore it every day,
And if you asked her why she always wore it,
She`d tell you for her lover who was far away.
|
On her hearth she kept a fire burning,
She kept it fall and winter, and in the month of May,
And if you asked her why she always kept it,
She`d tell you for her lover who was far, far away.
Saved her love, and saved her warmest kisses,
She saved them fall and winter, and in the month of May,
And if you asked her why she always saved them,
She`d tell you for her lover who was far, far away.
