Leaving Green Sleeves — текст песни (cohen leonard)

Alas, my love, you did me wrong,
to cast me out discourteously,
for I have loved you so long,
delighting in your very company.
Now if you intend to show me disdain,
don`t you know it all the more enraptures me,
for even so I still remain your lover in captivity.

Green sleeves, you`re all alone,
the leaves have fallen, the men have gone.
Green sleeves, there`s no one home,
not even the Lady Green Sleeves

I sang my songs, I told my lies,
to lie between your matchless thighs.
And ain`t it fine, ain`t it wild
to finally end our exercise
Then I saw you naked in the early dawn,
oh, I hoped you would be someone new.
I reached for you but you were gone,
so lady I`m going too.

Green sleeves, you`re all alone ...

Green sleeves, you`re all alone,
the leaves have fallen, the men have all gone home.
Green sleeves, it`s so easily done,
leaving the Lady Green Sleeves.
