Sandy Denny - East Virginia Lyrics

Font:

Align:

I was born in east virginia,

North carolina I did go.

There I met the fairest maiden

But her name I do not know.

Her hair it was a brightsome color

And her cheeks were rosy red.

On her breast she wore white lilies,

All the tears that I have shed.

In my heart you are my darling,

At my door youre welcome in.

At my gate Ill always meet you

If your love I could only win.

In the night Im dreaming of you,

In the day I find no rest.

Just the thought of you, my darling,

Sends aching pains all through my breast.

Id rather be in some dark holler

Where the sun refused to shine

Than to see you with another one, darling,

To know you never will be mine.

Oh, when Im dead and in my coffin

With my face towards the sun,

Come and look upon me, darling

See the deed that you have done.
