Текст песни JAMES TAYLOR - One Morning In May
<br/>
One morning, one morning, one morning in May,<br />I spied a young couple, they were making their way.<br />One was a maiden so bright and so fair and the other was a soldier and a brave volunteer.<br /><br />Good morning, good morning, good morning said he,<br />and where are you going my pretty lady?<br />I'm going out a-walking on the banks of the sea<br />( )<br />just to see the water's glide and hear the nightingale sing.<br /><br />Now they had not been standing but a minute or two<br />when out of his knapsack a fiddle he drew<br />and the tune that he played made the valleys all ring,<br />oh hark, cried the maiden, hear the nightingale sing.<br /><br />Oh maiden, fair maiden, 'tis time to give o'er.<br />Oh no, kind soldier, please play one tune more<br />for I'd rather hear your fiddle at the touch of one string<br />than to see the waters glide and hear the nightingale sing.<br /><br />Oh soldier, kind soldier, will you marry me? Oh no, pretty maiden, that never shall be.<br />I've a wife down in London and children twice three,<br />two wives and the army's too many for me.<br /><br />Well, I'll go back to London and I'll stay there for a year,<br />it's often that I'll think of you, my little dear.<br />And if ever I return it will be in the spring<br />just to see the waters glide and hear the nightingale sing.<br />To see the waters glide and hear the nightingale sing.<br />
