When a Man's In Love

When a man's in love he feels no cold, like me not long ago,
Like a hero bold to see his girl he'd plough through the frost and snow.
The moon she greatly shone her light along the dreary way,
Till I arrived at that sweet spot where all my treasures lay.

I rapped at my love's window saying my dear are you within?
And slowly, she unlocked the door and slyly I stepped in.
Her hand so soft, her breath so sweet, her tongue did gently glide,
I stole my arm around her waist and I asked her to be my bride.

Oh take me to your chamber love, oh take me to your bed,
Oh take me to your chamber love, to rest my weary head.
For to take you to my chamber love, my parents love my parents they won't agree,
So sit you down by yon bright fire and I'll sit close to thee.

Oh many's the night I've courted you against your parents' will,
But you never said you'd be my bride and now my girl sit still.
For tonight I have to cross the sea to far Columbia shore,
And you will never ever see your faithful lover more.

Oh are you going to leave me here, oh what else can I do?
I'd break through every tie of love to go along with you.
Perhaps my parents might forget, I'm sure they must forgive,
For from this moment I'm content along with you to live.
