Dolores Keane - The Bonnie Light Horseman lyrics



When Boney commanded his armies to stand
He levelled his cannon right over the land
And he levelled his cannon his victory to gain
And slew my light horseman on the way coming here

Chorus:
Brokenhearted I'll wander
Brokenhearted I'll remain
Since my bonny light horseman
In the wars he was slain

If I was a small bird and had wings to fly
I'd fly 'cross the salt sea to where my love does lie
And with my fond wings I'd beat over his grave
And kiss the pale lips that lie cold in the clay

Chorus

Now, the dove she laments for her mate as she flies
"Oh where, tell me where is my darling" she cries
And where in this wide world is there one to compare
With my bonny light horseman who was slain in the war

Chorus

When Boney commanded his armies to stand
He levelled his cannon right over the land
And he levelled his cannon his victory to gain
And slew my light horseman on the way coming here

Chorus
