Loreena McKennitt - Greensleeves lyrics
Music Traditional, Lyrics by King Henry VIII Alas my love you do me wrong To cast me off discourteously; And I have loved you oh so long Delighting in your company. GREENSLEEVES was my delight, GREENSLEEVES my heart of gold GREENSLEEVES was my heart of joy And who but my Lady GREENSLEEVES. I have been ready at your hand To grant whatever thou would'st crave; I have waged both life and land Your love and goodwill for to have. GREENSLEEVES wa my delight, GREENSLEEVES my heart of gold GREENSLEEVES was my heart of joy And who but my Lady GREENSLEEVES. Thy petticoat of sendle white With gold embroidered gorgeously; Thy petticoat of silk and white And these I bought gladly. GREENSLEEVES wa my delight, GREENSLEEVES my heart of gold GREENSLEEVES was my heart of joy And who but my Lady GREENSLEEVES. I always wondered how Tom Waits would sing GREENSLEEVES. When preparing my previous recording PARALLEL DREAMS, while waiting to do something else, we accidentally and spontaneously recorded this track in one take without ever intending to release it. However, here is, Tom. - L.M. L.M.: Vocals, Keyboards BRIAN HUGHES: Guitar GEORGE KOLLER: Cello |
