Greensleeves lyrics
by Marianne Faithfull
[Verse]
Alas my love you do me wrong
To cast me off discourteously
For I have loved you so long
Delighting in your company
[Chorus]
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight
Greensleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my lady greensleeves ?
[Verse]
Alas my love that you should own
A heart of wanton vanity
So I must meditate alone
Upon your insincerity
Greensleeves...
