Firethief
Who stole the heart of my bonnie laddie?
All alone and aloney O
And left me another lad in his body
Down where I cannot go
Down where I cannot follow
Who stole the light from my laddie's eyes?
All alone and aloney O
And left me another lad in disguise?
Down where I cannot go
Down where I cannot follow
And who stole the words from my laddie's tongue?
All alone and aloney O
And left me a rickle of skin and bone?
Down where I cannot go
Down where I cannot follow
Who stole today?
And who stole tomorrow?
And left me with nothing, with nothing
But doul and sorrow?
But doul and sorrow?
Oh I know the name of the fire thief
All alone and aloney O
But you can't grow a tree from a fallen leaf
Down where I cannot go
Down where I cannot go
Down where I cannot follow
Down where I cannot go

But you can't grow a tree from a fallen leaf
Down where I cannot go
Down where I cannot go
Down where I cannot follow
Down where I cannot go
