Sound Of A Drum Lyrics
I've come to you with honour
I've come to you in vain
I've come to you my true love
In the the green wood, you were slain
I'll do as muych for my love
As any young man may
I'll sit and mourn her memory
For twelve month and a day
The sound of a drum
It's beating all around
Like a shadow on the run
Caught in the dark
My lover lay down
She lay down
I think upon this garden
The purest footprints walked
The fairest flower now blossom
Is all withered to a stalk
Your lips they are cold sweetheart
Your breath is earthly strong
And if I kiss your cold lips
Then my time here will not be long
The sound of a drum
It's beating all around
Like a shadow on the run
Caught in the dark
My lover lay down, yeah
She lay down
My lover lay down, yeah
She lay down, yeah
The sound of a drum
I hear it beating all around me

Like a shadow on the run
Caught in the dark
Yeah, the sound of a drum
I hear it beating all around me
Like a shadow on the run
Caught in the dark
She lay down
