Pentangle - When I Was In My Prime Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • When I was in my prime I flourished like a vine
  • There came along a false young man, come stole the heart of mine
  • Come stole the heart of mine.
  • The gardener standing by, three offers he made to me
  • The pink, the violet and red rose, which I refused all three
  • Which I refused all three.
  • The pink's no flower at all, for it fades away to soon
  • And the violet is too pale a hue, I think I'll wait 'til June
  • I think I'll wait 'til June.
  • In June the red rose blooms, that's not the flower for me
  • I think I'll pull the red rose up and plant a willow tree
  • And plant a willow tree.
  • And the willow tree shall weep, and the willow tree shall whine
  • I wish I was in the young man's arms that stole the heart of mine
  • That stole the heart of mine.
  • If I'm spared for one year more, and God should grant me grace
  • I'll weep a bowl of crystal tears to wash his deceitful face
  • To wash his deceitful face.
