The Moon and Stars

The moon and stars were weeping, weeping high above
Watching me lamenting
Lamenting you, my love
You are cruel and hardhearted, even now you lie to me
Oh, I wish the day had never dawned
When you set your eyes on me
For your favour's like a feather that's blown on every wind
You promised me the moon and stars
Just to leave me now behind
Oh, I wish I'd never seen your face or heard your lying tongue
I wish I had my time again, but what is done is done
I'll go down to my father's garden, I will sit and cry my fill
For when I gave myself away
It was with my own free will
There's a herb grows in your garden, and some, they call it rue
When swallows dive and fishes fly
Then young men will prove true
Oh, I wish I'd never seen you face or heard your lying tongue
I wish I had my time again, but what is done is done
The moon and stars were screeching, roaring in the sky
I laid my head upon a stone
And then I closed my eyes
