lyrics

My lover left me for a war
In a battle far from home.
And now I cry evermore.
My lover left me on my own.

And I, I cry.
My tears make a mournful sound.
And I, I,
I wish I were there with him 'neath the ground.

My lover left me in the spring
When the flowers were around,
And on his return, he promised a ring.
He kissed me and my heart was bound.

And I, I cry.
My tears make a mournful sound.
And I, I,
I wish I were there with him 'neath the ground.

September then January, cold as ice.
No word from my love, though the battle's long o'r.
His very own life, he sacrificed.
My lover left me for a war.

And I, I cry.
My tears make a mournful sound.
And I, I,
I wish I were there with him 'neath the ground.

And I, I cry.
My tears make a mournful sound.
And I, I,
I wish I were there with him 'neath the ground.

I wish I were there with him 'neath the ground.
