Roland, please forgive me dear It breaks my heart full sore I long to keep your company But we shall meet no more, no more We shall meet no more The days are dark as night my love And d**h looks for my door The whispers tell that gabriel hounds Have been heard upon the moor, the moor The hounds howl on the moor Mompesson has the church door locked And closed eyam to it's fate We're ordered not to leave these bounds So now we quietly wait, we wait The end we quietly wait
Our congregation meets outside Beneath the heaven's high All down at cucklet delph we pray Where in secret met you and I, my love In secret met you and I My family sleeps in the yard In flower beds side by side I fear that when the judgement Their souls shall be denied, denied Their souls shall be denied So roland, please forgive me dear It breaks my heart full sore To know you'll wait down at the delph But you'll see my face no more, no more My face you'll see no more
