Jolie Holland - Adieu False Heart lyrics

rate me

Adieu false heart, since we must part May the joy of the world go with you I've loved you long with a faithful heart But I never anymore will I believe you I've seen the time I'd have married you And been your constant lover But now I'll freely give you up for one whose heart's more truer. My mind is like the constant sun From the east to the west it ranges Yours is like unto the moon It's every month a-changing When I lay down to take my rest No scornful morn to wake me I'll go straight ways unto my grave Just as fast as time can take me
