1
I am stretched on your grave
2
And will lie there forever
3
If your hands were in mine
4
I'd be sure we'd not sever
5
My apple tree my brightness
6
It's time we were together
7
For I smell of the earth
8
And am worn by the weather
9
When my family thinks
10
That I'm safe in my bed
11
From night until morning
12
I am stretched at your head
13
Calling out to the air
14
With tears hot and wild
15
My grief for the girl
16
That I loved as a child
17
Do you remember
18
The night we were lost
19
In the shade of the blackthorn
20
And the chill of the frost
21
Thanks be to Jesus
22
We did what was right
23
And your maiden head still
24
Is your pillar of light
25
The priests and the friars
26
Approach me in dread
27
Because I still love you
28
My love and you're dead
29
I still would be your shelter
30
Through rain and through storm
31
And with you in your cold grave
32
I cannot sleep warm
33
So I'm stretched on your grave
34
And will lie there forever
35
If your hands were in mine
36
I'd be sure we'd not sever
37
My apple tree my brightness
38
It's time we were together
39
For I smell of the earth
40
And am worn by the weather
