i once had a true love and i loved him so well i loved him far better than my tongue can tell and i thought that he spoke and to me did say it will not be long love til our wedding day if i were an eagle and had wings for to fly i would fly to his castle and there i would lie on a bed of green laurel i would lay myself down and with my fond dreams i would my love surround i dreamt last night that my true love came in so slowly he came that his feet made no din and i thought that he spoke and to me did say it will not be long love til our wedding day
