Cold Mountain movie - You Will Be My Ain True Love lyrics

rate me

Song by Alison Krauss<br /><br>

You'll walk unscathed through musket fire<br>

No plowman's blade will cut thee down<br>

No cutler's horn will mark thy face<br>

and you will be my ain true love<br>

and you will be my ain true love<br>

<br>

And as you walk through death's dark veil<br>

the cannon's thunder can't prevail<br>

And those who hunt thee down will fail<br>

and you will be my ain true love<br>

and you will be my ain true love<br>

<br>

Asleep inside the cannon's mouth<br>

the captain cries "Here comes the rout"<br>

They'll seek to find me north & south<br>

I've gone to find my ain true love<br>

<br>

The field is cut and bleeds to red<br>

the cannonballs fly round my head<br>

The infirmaryman may count me dead<br>

when I've gone to find my ain true love<br>

I've gone to find my ain true love...<br>
