Joan Baez - Annabel Lee Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • It was many and many a year ago,
  • In a kingdom by the sea,
  • That a maiden there lived whom you may know
  • By the name of ANNABEL LEE;
  • And this maiden she lived with no other thought
  • Than to love and be loved by me.
  • I was a child and SHE was a child,
  • In this kingdom by the sea,
  • But we loved with a love that was more than love-
  • I and my ANNABEL LEE-
  • With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
  • Coveted her and me.
  • And this was the reason that,long ago,
  • In this kingdom by the sea,
  • A wind blew out of a cloud,chilling
  • MyANNABEL LEE;
  • So that her high-born kinsmen came
  • And bore her away from me,
  • To shut her up in a sepulcher
  • In this kingdom by the sea.
  • AND the angels,not half so happy in heaven,
  • Went envying her and me-
  • Yes!-that was the reason(as all men know,
  • In this kingdom by the sea)
  • That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
  • Chilling my ANNABEL LEE;
  • That the wind came out of the cloud by night
  • Killing my ANNABELLEE.
  • But our love it was stronger by far than the love
  • Of those who were older than we-
  • Of many far wiser than we-
  • And neither the angels in heaven above
  • Nor the the demons down under the sea,
  • Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
  • Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE: And the moon never beams,without bringing me
  • dreams
  • Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE;
  • And the stars never rise,but I feel the bright eyes
  • Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE:
  • And so,all the night-tide,I lie down by the side
  • Of my darling my life and my bride,
  • In the sepulcher there by the sea-
  • In her tomb by the sounding sea.
