One Night As I Lay On My Bed by Steeleye Span

One Night As I Lay On My Bed Lyrics

edit | print 
One night as I lay on me bed
I dreamed about a pretty maid
I was so oppressed, I could take no rest
Love did torment me so
So away to my true loves I did go

And when I came to my loves wooden door
I boldly called her by her name
For your sweet sake, I've come her this late
Through this bitter frost and snow
so open your window my love do

Me mam and dad they are both awake
and their sure for to here us speak
They'll be no excuse then but sore abuse
Many a bitter word and blow
So begone from my window my love do

Your mam and dad they are both asleep
and their sure not to her us speak.
Their sleeping sound on their bed of down
their warm under their covers
so open your window my love do

My love arose and opened the door
and just like an angel she stood on the floor
Her eyes shone bright like the stars at night
No diamonds could shine so
and in with my true love I did go
