The Highwayman |
The wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees |
The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas |
The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor |
And the highwayman came riding up to the old inn-door |
His love had died a year ago, a bullet in her breast |
The deadly shot a warning that he soon would be next |
And so they found him on the road and they killed him like a dog |
But still he keeps on riding in moonlight and in fog |
Plaiting a dark red love knot into her long black hair |
She waits to see him only, singing in her despair |
After the sunlight, there comes the rain |
Never to see my true love again |
After the bullet I still remain |
Never to see my true love again |
Two lovers that were parted shall never meet once more |
Although he keeps on knocking at the old inn door |
His horse shall gallop nightly since she met her death |
And the inn was burned down years ago with her final breath |
And I wander this world and I mourn for my loss |
All the gold and silver could 'nair pay the cost |
After kisses in darkness a river of blood |
Now the Highwayman rides, whilst the moon shines above |
Moon shine brightly o’er the heather |
Don’t deny my iron will |
