Death of a Maiden
Quelle: Spotify
Long ago there was a soldier
And he went to take his stand,
Down the side, of his brothers
In a strange and foreign land.
Before he left, he met a maiden
Like he never seen before
Stole his heart, just like an angel
When she threw him down, he begged for more.
Now he asked the angel, if she would marry
he asked if she would be his bride
She said she could not be the widow
to any fighting soldiers pride.
He said I cannot leave my brothers
to go fight this war alone.
So I must go
ya but please my love
Only wait for my return.
Well she said, "Its true love,
there is no question.
But true love can keep me warm.
Who will kiss my ruby lips,
when you are dead and gone?"
He said please stay,
You are my true love
Because I could not dare to go
Into the arms of any other
No your the only love know.
She said I'll wait for you
You are my soldier
If u promise to return
To our home in Carolina
Where my love for you will burn, burn.
When she got the news
She cried out my love was lost at sea
She herself jumped in the water
where forever they will be, they will be.
