Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Maid of Coolmore
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Maid of Coolmore
I'm delighted to see that everyone is posting "My love I'll go see" in the last verse. There are a number of recordings around that use "My love I'll search for" which obviously doesn't rhyme with "no-one knows me". I know songs don't always have to rhyme (or the rhymes can be internal), but why use words that don't when there's a set that does. Or is it because "search for" rhymes (more or less) with Coolmore ?
