The Ballad Of Mary (queen Of Scots) Lyrics - Grave Digger

My fingers touch the solid stones 

Strong and cold, they keep me from home 

Imprisoned like a wingless dove 

Far away from the land I love 

Lonely days count lonely years 

I have cried a thousand tears 

All that I tried to gain 

Is lost the effort was in vain 

At Carberry hill I lost my crown 

My husband fled, my luck went down 

In England's hands I fell 

18 years a living hell 

The Scottish crown belongs to me 

Yet I'm bound, I cannot flee 

With iron claws England holds tight 

All is lost, no chance to fight 

Silence, silence everywhere 

Cold walls are my reward 

Loneliness engulfs my soul 

I've been true, I gave my heart 

Stained tears I cried 

I long to be free again 

To walk in peace again 

Scotland cries, her queen is lost 

Agony's her friend again
