lyrics

For I have dreamed a dreary dream.
Oh who is free of sorrow?
For my love was dead on a leafy bed
Beside the River Yarrow.

And many men did come and go,
And all were armed with knife.
They’ve slain, they’ve slain my own dear swain,
They’ve twined him of his life…

They’ve slain, they’ve slain my own dear swain,
They’ve twined him of his life…

The song you heard when in the womb—
Your mother sang it often.
The spirit of it stayed with you,
The gone but not forgotten.

Now I become the dreary dream,
But I will hear no pity,
Though I lie dead on an icy bed
Beside the Mississippi…

Though I lie dead on an icy bed
Beside the Mississippi…
