Shes Like the Swallow

[00:04.15] She's like a swallow that flies so high,

[00:09.48] She's like a river that never runs dry,

[00:15.04] She's like the sunshine on the lee shore,

[00:20.38] She loves her love and love's no more.

[00:26.33] 'Tis out in the garden this fair maid did go,

[00:32.16] A picking a lovely primrose,

[00:37.76] The more she plucked the more she pulled,

[00:43.33] Until she's got her apron full.

[00:53.71] She climbed on yonder hill above,

[00:59.02] To give a rose unto her love,

[01:04.62] She gave him one, she gave him three,

[01:10.46] She gave her heart for company.

[01:16.32] And as they sat on yonder hill

[01:21.54] His heart grew hard, so harder still.

[01:27.13] He has two hearts instead of one;

[01:32.71] She says, young man what have you done.

[01:43.06] 'Twas out of those roses she made a bed,

[01:48.57] A stony pillow for her head.

[01:54.40] She laid her down, no word she spoke,

[01:59.64] For this poor lady's heart was broke.

[02:05.40] How foolish, foolish you must be,

[02:10.98] To think I loved no one but thee;

[02:16.57] This world's not made for one alone;

[02:22.43] I take delight in everyone.
