Through Lonesome Woods Songtext
von Bella Hardy

Through lonesome woods I took my way
So dark so dark as dark can be
The leaves were shivering on every tree
Which don′t you think was grief to me
Don't you think was grief to me

As I was going through Dibden town
I saw my true love sitting down
Saw another girl sitting on my man′s knee
Which don't you think was grief to me
Don't you think was grief to me


I called my true love by his name
And up he rose and to me came
I gave him kisses by one two three
But none so sweet as he gave me
None so sweet as he gave to me

Now winter′s gone, the summer′s come
The small birds from their nest is flown
He's told me plainly unto my face
"You′re not the young girl I love best
Not the young girl I love the best"

Through lonesome woods then I'll make my way
So dark so dark as dark can be
I′ll never love if not loved by thee
Which don't you think is grief to me
Don′t you think it's grief to me
