Martin Carthy & Eliza Carthy - Waking Dreams (Awake, Awake) lyrics

rate me

Oh, don't sing luv songs, you'll wake my mother

She's sleepin' here, right by my side

& in her right hand, a silver dagger

She says that I can't be yo bride

All men are false, says my mother

They tell you wicked, luvin' lies

& in the next breath they'll court another

They'll leave you ere the sun does rise

My daddy is a handsome devil

He has a chain five miles long

On every link a heart does dangle

Of another maid he's luved & wronged

Oh then go home 2 yo own garden

Oh then go home, return no more

No other man may come a'courtin'

No other luver cross my door

Oh, don't sing luv songs, you'll wake my mother

She's sleepin' here, right by my side

& in her right hand, a silver dagger

She says that I can't be yo bride
