I Wonder What's Keeping My True Love Tonight |
I wonder what’s keeping my true love tonight |
I wonder what’s keeping her out of my sight |
It is little she knows of the pain that I endure |
Or she would not stay from me this night, I am sure |
Oh love, are you coming your cause to advance? |
Oh love, are you waiting for a far better chance? |
Or have you got a sweetheart laid by you in store? |
And you’re coming to tell me that you love me no more? |
Oh love, I’m not coming my cause to advance |
And love, I’m not waiting for a far better chance |
But I have got a sweetheart laid by me in store |
And I’m coming to tell you that I love you no more |
For 'tis I can love lightly and 'tis I can love long |
And 'tis I can love the old love 'til the new love comes along |
I just said that I loved you for to set your mind at ease |
But when I’m far from you, I’ll love whom I please |
Well, I’ve gold in my pocket and I’ve love in my heart |
But I can’t love a maiden who has got two sweethearts |
Your love, it lies as lightly as the dew upon a thorn |
Comes down in the evening, goes away in the morn |
Green grass, it grows bonny, spring water runs clear |
I am weary and lonesome for the love of my dear |
You’re my first and false true love and 'tis lately I knew |
That the fonder I loved you, the falser you grew |
