Annabell Lee Lyrics - Singles - Ataraxia

many and many a year ago 

in a kingdom by the sea, 

a maiden there lived 

by the name of annabell lee. 

she lived with no other thought 

than to love and be loved by me, 

in this kingdom by the sea 

her name was annabell lee. 

all the night - tide, 

I lie down her side 

oh my darling - my darling - my bride 

my life and my bride 

all the night - tide 

in her sepulchre there by the sea 

in her tomb by the sounding sea 

I lie down by her side 

all the night - tide 

oh my darling my darling - my bride 

her high-born kinsmen came 

and bore her away from me 

to shut her up in a sepulchre 

in this kingdom by the sea. 

neither the angels in heaven above, 

nor the demons down under the sea, 

can dissever my soul from the soul 

of the beautiful annabell lee. 

[Edgar Allan Poe]
