Hi

Beautiful song this one. I got it off a Celtic Tapestry CD. The words are as I hear them so feel free to differ.

Anyone know of any good Karan Casey CDs?

ONE, I LOVE
(as sung by Karan Casey)

One, I love. Two, she loves. And three, she's true to me.
All of my friends fell out with me
Because I kept your company.
Let them say whatever they will.
I love my love with a free good will.

One, I love. Two, she loves. And three, she's true to me.
They tell me he's poor, they tell me he's young.
I tell them all to houl' their tongue,
If they could part the sand from the sea
They never could part my love from me.

One, I love. Two, she loves. And three, she's true to me.
It's over the mountain he must go
Because his fortune is too low.
With an aching heart and a troubled mind
He's leaving his own true love behind.

Instrumental 1st line of verse X2

When I'm awake I find no rest
Until his head lies on my breast
When I'm asleep I'm dreaming of
My one, my dear, my own true love.

One, I love. Two, she loves. And three, she's true to me.
And when the fire to ice will run,
When the tide no longer turns
When the rocks melt with the sun
My love for you will have just begun.

One, I love. Two, she loves. And three, she's true to me.
One, I love. Two, she loves. And three, she's true to me.

Hopefully I'll get my computer to acknowledge that I exist again over the next few days..... apologizes to those who are waiting on tunes etc........

Slainte
