Subject: RE: Original Music That Sounds Traditional?
Peg!

Great lyrics! I may have to make off with them when yer not looking!

But I once found a set of lyrics for "She Moved..." that claimed to be the original, that had, to start the last verse, the line...
"I drempt it last night, that my dead love came in"

How much do you know about that lyric and it authenticity?
Talk about a ghost story eh... I find it hard to play past that line without the image of this Romeroesque zombie woman, reaching her hand up this poor guys bedclothes... He smiles in his sleep... rolls over sluggishly.. kisses her... her lips fall off.. his eyes shoot open... the obligtory scream!
