LRC Lyrics download
[00:00.300] Oh I am stretched on your grave
[00:03.746] And I'll lie here forever
[00:07.250] If your hands were in mine
[00:11.067] I'd be sure they would not sever
[00:15.481] My apple tree, my brightness
[00:18.788] It's time we were together
[00:22.226] For I smell of the earth
[00:25.846] And am worn by the weather
[00:32.079] When my family thinks
[00:35.507] That I'm safely in my bed
[00:39.263] Oh from morn until night
[00:42.904] I am stretched out at your head
[00:47.166] Calling out unto to the earth
[00:51.046] With tears hot and wild
[00:54.314] For the loss of the girl
[00:58.080] That I loved as a child
[01:03.818] Do you remember the night
[01:07.497] Oh the night when we were lost
[01:11.224] In the shade of the blackthorn
[01:14.908] And the touch of frost
[01:19.445] Oh and thanks be to Jesus
[01:23.020] We did all that was right
[01:26.264] And your maidenhead still
[01:29.986] Is your pillar of light
[01:35.623] Oh the priests and the friars
[01:39.169] They approach me in dread
[01:42.920] Oh for I love you still
[01:46.646] Oh my life, and you're dead
[01:50.938] I still will be your shelter
[01:54.601] Through rain and through storm
[01:57.991] And with you in your cold grave
[02:01.585] I cannot sleep warm
[02:07.230] So I am stretched on your grave
[02:11.048] And I'll lie here forever
[02:14.886] If your hands were in mine
[02:18.564] I'd be sure they would not sever
[02:22.728] My apple tree, my brightness
[02:26.619] It's time we were together
[02:29.946] For I smell of the earth
[02:33.758] And am worn by the weather

Oh I am stretched on your grave
And I'll lie here forever
If your hands were in mine
I'd be sure they would not sever
My apple tree, my brightness
It's time we were together
For I smell of the earth
And am worn by the weather
When my family thinks
That I'm safely in my bed
Oh from morn until night
I am stretched out at your head
Calling out unto to the earth
With tears hot and wild
For the loss of the girl
That I loved as a child
Do you remember the night
Oh the night when we were lost
In the shade of the blackthorn
And the touch of frost
Oh and thanks be to Jesus
We did all that was right
And your maidenhead still
Is your pillar of light
Oh the priests and the friars
They approach me in dread
Oh for I love you still
Oh my life, and you're dead
I still will be your shelter
Through rain and through storm
And with you in your cold grave
I cannot sleep warm
So I am stretched on your grave
And I'll lie here forever
If your hands were in mine
I'd be sure they would not sever
My apple tree, my brightness
It's time we were together
For I smell of the earth
And am worn by the weather
