"Rest your head my love;
Rest your tired limbs;
Leave your mind at peace,
at peace, at peace,
What are you thinking now?"
"Thinking
of a girl
As golden as the sun
She loved me not
like you, like you, like you"
"Pray do you love me
more?"
"It's hard to say for
sure,
A child, sixteen, was I
Both virgins did we
buy, we buy, we buy"
"You loved her more than me".
"She
left me one dark night
She took my heart for free
I've
seen her not since then, since then, since then,
God if I saw her
now."
