Paroles Jimmy Whelan de Karan Casey

Textes et Paroles de Jimmy Whelan

One evening of late as I went a walkingWatching the sunbeams as evening drew nigh'Twas onwards I rambled and I spied a fair maidenA weeping and a wailing with many's a sighFor one who is gone and now lies lonelyLonely for one no mortal can tellHer deep roaming waters roll swiftly around himAnd the grass it lies green over young Jimmy's graveOh, Jimmy she cried now don't go and leave meDon't go and leave me here for to mourntake me oh take along with you darlingDown to your grave and the cold silent tombMy darling he said you are asking a favorThat no mortal on earth could grant onto theeFor death is the dagger that has torn us asunderAnd wide is the grave love between you and meFor 'tis oft times you walk by the banks of the riverMy spirit will watch you to guard and to keepThere will I hover and ever fly overTo protect my darling from the cold silent tombOne fond embrace love and then I must leave youOne loving farewell and then we must partCold were the arms that encircled around herAnd cold was the form she pressed to her heartThen slowly he rose from the banks of the riverUp to the skies he then seem to goLeaving this fair maid by the side of the waterA weeping and a wailing with many's a sighOh, Jimmy she cried now don't go and leave meDon't go and leave me here for to mourntake me oh take along with you darlingDown to your grave and the cold silent tomb
