Mary Lee(Remastered 2014) - The Rainbows

[00:14.57]Twas all on a cold winter's night
[00:20.36]When the winds blew across the wild moor
[00:23.27]That Mary came wand'ring along with her child
[00:25.7]Till she came to her own father's door
[00:27.48]O why did I leave this dear spot
[00:31.15]Where once I was happy and free
[00:34.23]And now doomed to roam without friends or a home
[00:36.62]And none to take pity on me
[00:39.97]O father dear father she cried
[00:41.94]Do come downstairs and open the door
[00:45.03]For the child in my arms will perish and die
[00:47.97]From the winds that blow 'cross the wild moor
[00:50.92]But the old man was deaf to her cries
[00:54.16]Not a sound of her voice did he hear
[00:58.69]But the watchdog did howl and tAe village bell tolled
[01:04.46]And the winds blew across the wild moor
[01:21.45]O how must the old man have felt
[01:22.59]When he came to the door the next morn
[01:25.85]And found Mary dead but the child was alive
[01:29.11]Closely clasped in its dead mother's arms
[01:33.94]With anguish he tore his gray hair
[01:38.86]While the tears down his cheeks they did roll
[01:43.45]Saying There Mary died once the gay village bride
[01:48.44]From the winds that blew 'cross the wild moor
[01:54.34]The old man with grief pined away
[01:55.979996]And the child to its mother went soon
[02:00.11]There's no one they say has lived there to this day
[02:02.93]And the cottage to ruin has gone
[02:05.65]The villagers point out the spot
[02:08.49]Where the willows droop over the door
[02:12.09]Saying There Mary died once the gay village bride
[02:14.47]From the winds that blew 'cross the wild moor
