Are You Going To Leave Me Lyrics - Singles - Isobel Campbell

Are you going to leave me, love? 

Are you going to leave me? 

Would you give up your own love true? 

To go with a girl you never knew 

My true love stands in the bower door 

Combing down his yellow hair 

His bonnie face, I like to see 

I wonder if my love thinks of me 

When I wore my apron low 

Couldn't keep you from my door 

But now my apron's to my shin 

You pass me by and won't come in 

I wish my baby, it was born 

Smiling on his daddy's knee 

And I a poor girl, dead and gone 

And the green grass growing over me 

Now there's a bird in young church yard 

They say he's blind and cannot see 

I wish it'd been the same with me 

Before I kept your company 

I wish, I wish but it's all in vain 

I wish I was a maid again 

But a maid again, I will never be 

Since that young man lay still with me 

Are you going to leave me, love? 

Are you going to leave me? 

Would you give up your own love true? 

To go with a girl you never knew
