Green Sleeves
Alas, my love, you do me wrong, To cast me off discourteously. For I have loved you oh, so long, Delighting in your company.
Green sleeves was all my joy, Green sleeves was my delight. Green sleeves was my heart of gold, And who but my lady, Green sleeves.
If you intend to be this way, It does the more enrapture me. And even so I still remain A lover in captivity.
Green sleeves was all my joy, Green sleeves was my delight. Green sleeves was my heart of gold, And who but my lady, Green sleeves. Mm Mm...
Green sleeves now farewell adieu, God I pray will prosper thee, For I am still thy lover true, Come once again and love me.
