Lassie Songtext
von Bröselmaschine

I once loved a Lassie and I loved her so well
And hated all others who spoke of her ill
And now she′s rewarded me well for my love
She's gone to be wed to another

I saw my love up to the church door
It′s groom and bride-maidens, they make a fine show
I followed on with my heart full of woe
She's gone to be wed to another


I saw my love as she sat down to dine
I sat down beside her and I poured out the wine
I thought that where Lassie that should had be mine
She's gone to be wed to another

The men in your forest, they ask it of me
"How many strawberries grow in the salt sea?"
I answer them with a tear in my eye
"How many ships sail in the forest?"

So dig me a grave and dig it so deep
Cover it over with flowers of sweet
And I lay me down to take a ′lost sleep′
And maybe in time I'll forget her
