I wrote it to Green Grow the Laurels sung by Sandy Denny


Here it goes:

Our roses have faded

My life, 'tis ending,
Because thy will is not bending,
But I am bound to you,
Weather by life or death,
Oh, love tell me your true,
Ah, our roses,
Hath they faded into dissaray?
As our book closes,
Into a sunless day?
Your hands upon me,
Your kisses on my neck and breasts,
Sicken and grow my misery,
Because I know it is all jests,
Betrayal is a devious sin,
One not to easily forgiven,
But is it not men's right,
To fool their women?
But yet, I am not free to leave,
By you or myself, I cannot know,
Mayhap both, as I believe,
You've written your words,
I've written mine,
But mine are erased and spit upon,
By yourself so benign,
Slay me a dragon,
It no longer matters,
Because our roses have faded,
In a sunless day so jaded,
But love, know this,
It was fated....
