Cold blows the wind o'er my true love
Cold blow the drops the rain
I've never had but one true love
In greenwood she is lain
I'll do as much for my true love
As any young man may
I'll sit and weep down by her grave
For twelve months and a day
When twelve month and a day had pa**ed
This young girl she did speak
Why weep you by my grave sweetheart
And will not let me sleep?
One kiss one kiss from your lily white lips
One kiss is all I crave
One kiss one kiss from your lily white lips
And return back to your grave
The stalk is withered and dry sweetheart
The flower will never return
Don't grieve don't grieve down by my side
And here no longer bide
When shall we meet again sweetheart
When shall we meet again?
I never had but one true love
In greenwood she is lain
