Steeleye Span - Two Constant Lovers lyrics

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 around Ch: Crying "Ohh.. my love is gone He's the youth I adore And he's drowned And I never shall 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 When I asked her to marry me, marry me please But the answer she gave: "My love's drowned in the seas" I said I had gold and I'd silver beside On a coach and six horses with me she could ride She said: "I'll not marry nor yet prove a wife I'll be constant and true all the days I have life" 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 d**h bed And the shrimps of the sea shall swim over my head" And now every night at six bells they appear When the moon is shining and the stars they are clear These two constant lovers with each other's charms Rolling over and over in each other's arms
