Folk Song

<br>I have waited the night over<br><br>For some word to come<br><br>I asked the moon oer the clover<br><br>But the moon she is dumb<br><br><br><br>You have made me a promise<br><br>At midnight wed go<br><br>And that we should be married<br><br>Sailing westward ho<br><br><br><br>Such words you have spoken<br><br>You have told me a lie<br><br>That it could not be broken<br><br>When you knew it must die<br><br><br><br>Theres no light in heaven<br><br>My eye can see<br><br>That my heart be imprisoned<br><br>While the devil go free<br><br>Go free<br><br><br><br>Like honey the ocean<br><br>In the morning breeze<br><br>Ill take my tears to the water<br><br>That the rivers may freeze<br><br><br><br>Theres no light in heaven<br><br>Can shine for me<br><br>That my heart be imprisoned<br><br>While the devil go free<br><br>Go free<br><br><br><br>What folly is beauty<br><br>What trick of the skin<br><br>Desire its fancy<br><br>And ruin its whim<br><br>Your child within me<br><br>And what can I do<br><br>My blood fill with needles<br><br>That he look like you<br><br><br><br>Theres no light in heaven<br><br>My eye can see<br><br>That my heart be imprisoned<br><br>While the devil go free<br><br>My heart be imprisoned<br><br>While the devil go free<br><br>No light in heaven<br><br>No light for me
