Died for Love - The Unthanks

A bald young farmer courted me

He gained my heart my liberty

He gained my heart with a free good will

And i must confess that i love him still

I wish i wish but its all in vain

I wish i was a maid again

But a maid again that never can be

Since that young farmer lay still with me

I wish my baby little was born and smilin on his fathers knee

And i was dead and in my grave

With the green grass growin all over me

There’s a bird that sits in yonders tree

Some say hes blind and cannot sing

Oh i wish it being the same with me

When first i met with your company

But a marble stone at my head and feet

But a turtle white dove

To let the world know that i died for love
