Red, Red Rose - The Deep Dark Woods

It’s been two months and I’m dying inside

I wish I’d a had you as my bride

The pain is in bloom and things are bleak

I didn’t even think of you once last week

I’m sitting here wondering what to do

Thinking about the night I bid my darling adieu

I thought my love had faded and gone

It was me, I was wrong all along

The rain it falls and the wind does blow

I gave my love a red, red rose

I wasn’t faithful I treated her poor

For this pain in my heart there ain’t no cure

I’m suffering hard, no the pain won’t end

It’s only you who I could depend

Forgive me love, let’s start anew

I never thought I would prove untrue

So listen to me all you ale house men

Don’t let the tavern take you in

Don’t let the cravings change your ways

Or you will be single all the rest of your days

The rain it falls and the wind does blow

I gave my love a red, red rose

I wasn’t faithful I treated her poor

For this pain in my heart there ain’t no cure

I’m suffering hard, no the pain won’t end

It’s only you who I could depend

Forgive me love, let’s start anew

I never thought I would prove untrue

So listen to me all you ale house men

Don’t let the tavern take you in

Don’t let the cravings change your ways

Or you will be single all the rest of your days

The rain it falls and the wind does blow

I gave my love a red, red rose

I wasn’t faithful I treated her poor

For this pain in my heart there ain’t no cure
