You're never more alive than the first time someone puts a gun to your favorite head and asks you to dance
Alas, my love you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
And I
have loved you so long
Delighting in your company
Ref:
Greensleeves
was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my
heart of gold
And who but my Lady Greensleeves.
I have been
ready at your hand
to grant whatever you would crave;
I have both
wagered life and land
Your love and good will for to have
Ref.
I
bought thee petticoats of the best,
What cloth so fine as fine might
be;
I gave thee jewels for thy chest,
And all this cost I spent
on thee.
Well will I pray to God on high
That thou my
constancy may'st see
And that once more before I die
Thou wouldst
vouchsafe to love me
Ref:
Greensleeves, now farewell!
adieu!
God I pray to prosper thee;
For I am still thy lover true
To cast me off discourteously
And I
have loved you so long
Delighting in your company
