Lyrics アイ・ラヴド・ア・ラス - Pentangle

アイ・ラヴド・ア・ラス

Oh, I loved a lass, and I loved her so well
That I hated all others who of her spoke ill
But this she rewarded me well for my love
She’s a-gone to be bride to another
When I saw her my love to who the church go
With a bride and bride maidens she made a fine show
I followed her around with a heart full of woe
She’s a-gone to be bride to another
When I saw my love sit down to dine
I sat down besid her to pour out the wine
I drank to th lassie that should have been mine
She’s a-gone to be bride to another
And the men in the forest they ask it of me
Saying «How many strawberries grow in the salt sea?»
I answered them back with a tear in my eye
«How many ships sail in the forest?»
