Lyrics One, I Love - Karan Casey

One, I Love

One, I love
Two, she loves
And three, she’s true to me All of my friends fell out with me Because I kept your company
Let them say whatever they will
I love my love with a free good will
(Chorus)
They tell me he’s poor, they tell me he’s young
I tell them all to hold their tongue
If they could part the sand from the sea
They never could part my love from me
(Chorus)
It’s over the mountain he must go Because his fortune is too low
With an aching heart and a troubled mind
He’s leaving his own true love behind
(Chorus)
When I’m awake, I find no rest
Until his head lies on my breast
When I’m asleep I’m dreaming of My one, my dear, my own true love
(Chorus)
And when the fire to ice will run
When the tide no longer turns
When the rocks melt with the sun
My love for you will have just begun
(Chorus)
