Greensleeves Lyrics

Artist: Loreena McKennitt
Album: The Visit

1: Alas my love, you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
And I have loved you oh so long
Delighting in your company

Ch: Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves my heart of gold
Greensleeves was my heart of joy
And who, but my Lady Greensleeves

2: I have been ready at your hand
To grant whatever thou wouldst crave
I have waged both live and land
Your love and goodwill for to have

(Ch)

3: Thy petticoat of sattin white
With gold embroidered gorgeously
Thy petticoat of silken white
And these I bought thee gladly

(Ch)
