The Highwayman

For love has come, thus will go..
But do you think I will ever let you so
You will be alone in wandering
And might think that I will do nothing..

So there I went to seek revenge
Rode my horse to take avenge
To those who took you away from me
The reasons why you I'll never see..

While on my way to where you're last
I saw the happy image of our past..
Before you warned me of your death..
My Bess, without me you took your final breath..

Now I only have a thing in mind
Tim the ostler I will find
Let him pay the priceless debt
For this sole cause my life I bet..

But how sweet a life would be..
If living is just a loan to me
Then death I shall willingly bargain
So I can be with you once again..

Then I heard a loud noise, a bang!
Blood is oozing, my thoughts hang..
Everything around me stood still..
And I saw you, my love, my will..

The sacrifice you made my love
Got us together, you now I have..
In the winter's night I met you
Today, tomorrow and all that's due..
