Till The Water Is All Long Gone Lyrics - What A Terrible World, What A Beautiful World - Decemberists

They came down from the mountain 

They strayed too long from the fountain 

And all the while 

All the while they longed for us 

But I won't betray you 

I won't betray you 

I won't betray you 

I won't 

No I won't betray you 

No I won't betray you 

No I won't betray you 

I won't 

Till the water's all gone

And you, my sweet flower 

And how you grew more sweet by the hour 

And loathe was I 

Loathe was I to lose you 

My tender rose 

My limber rose 

My slender loving daughter 

My tender rose 

My limber rose 

My slender loving daughter 

Till the water's all gone 

They came down from the mountain 

They strayed too long from the fountain 

Oh my girl, oh my love I've lost you

No I won't betray you 

I won't
