I once had a true love and I loved her so well
I loved her far better than my tongue can tell
And I thought that she whispered to me and did say
"It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day"
I dreamt last night that my true love came in
So softly she entered that her feet made no din
And I dreamt that she whispered to me and did say
"It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day
It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day"
If I were an eagle and I had wings to fly
I would fly to my love's castle and it's there I would lie
On a bed of green ivy I would lay myself down
And it's with my two fond wings I would my love surround
And it's with my two fond wings I would my love surround
I once had a true love and I loved her so well
I loved her far better than my tongue can tell
And I thought that she whispered to me and did say
"It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day
It will not be long, love, 'til our wedding day"
