Bella Hardy - Good Man's Wife lyrics

I've been loving you Like a soldier in the peacetime waiting for the war With my heart on the horizon and one eye on the door I'd swallowed up my pride And the tears that made my throat raw, conceded my defeat When that sound came to my window so neat and so complete Gypsy voices, singing Dum... Bought by a man with gold and silver and shoes, and a promise Thought I'd be a good man's wife and life would be complete But the nights turned cold and the moon changed her face and my temper And you looked right through me, like you never knew me I've been loving you Like the frosted trees of winter, waiting for the spring But my heart was sweetly melted when first I heard him sing Oh my dark eyed gypsy Dum... I kicked off my heels and I dressed in leather And I straight ran down the stairs to my true love He said “Will you go with me my darling one, my dearie? And I swear Lord Ca**ilis will ne'er come near thee” What care I for feather beds? 'll be sleeping in the fields for such a love as this Let Lord Ca**ilis keep his money, I'll keep my gypsy's kiss And his soft voice singing Dum...
