Fair Maiden Lyrics
Oh fair maiden
Can it be our love is fading
Please tell me it isn’t so
Please don’t say you have to go

So much sorrow, so much sorrow
I will try and love on the morrow

With your skin like silk
As white as milk
Your hair so fine
Like thin soft lines
You took my heart
Unto thy breast
I caressed your head
Unto my chest

For we laid together till the morning
But the storm clouds brought a warning
I failed to see the stars up above
Were all hidden like a cloak like our love

So much sorrow, so much sorrow
I will try and love on the morrow

For my passion I could not awaken
As my love had been forsaken
So she sailed away on the dawn tide
And I will never have her as my bride

So much sorrow, so much sorrow
I will try and love on the morrow

The ship that brought her to my door
Took her away to another shore
Each day I watch the sea ebb away
So like my love that never stays

So much sorrow, so much sorrow
I will try and love on the morrow

Paul Robert Thomas
