Cold Blows The Wind Lyrics - Pandemonium: The Essential Bellowhead - Bellowhead

Cold blows the wind of my true love 

Cold blow the drops of rain 

I never had but one true love 

And in Greenwood he lies slain 

I'll do as much for my true love 

As any young girl may 

I'll sit and weep down by his grave 

For twelve months and a day 

But when twelve months they were up and gone 

This young man, he arose 

What makes you sit by my grave and weep? 

I can't take my repose 

Instrumental

9 Misheard Christmas Carol Lyrics 

One kiss, one kiss from your lily-white lips 

One kiss is all I crave 

One kiss, one kiss from your lily-white lips 

Then return back to your grave 

These lips, they are as cold as clay 

My breath is heavy and strong 

If you were to kiss these lily-white lips 

Your life would not be long 

Oh don't you remember the garden grove 

Where once we used to walk 

Go pick the finest flower of the morn 

It will wither to a stalk 

Instrumental 

Go fetch me a flower from the dungeon deep 

Bring water from a stone 

Bring white milk from a virgin's breast 

That baby never bore none 

Photos 

Go dig me a grave both wide and deep 

Do it as quick as you may 

That I may lay down and take a long sleep 

For twelve months and a day
