I've waited the night over
For some word to come
I asked the moon o'er the clover

but the moon she is dumb

You've made me a promise

At midnight we'd go
And that we should be married
Sailing westward ho


Such words you have spoken
You have told me a lie

That it could not be broken
when you knew it must die


There's no light in heaven
That my heart can see
That my heart be imprisioned

While the devil go free
Go free


Like honey the ocean
In the morning breeze
Take my tears to the water

That the rivers may freeze

There's no light in heaven

Can shine for me
That my heart be imprisioned
While the devil go free

Go free

What folly is beauty

What trick of the skin
Desire is fancy
And ruin it's whim

Your child within me
And what should I do
My blood fill with needles

That he look like you

There's no light in heaven

That my heart can see
That my heart be imprisioned
While the devil go free

My heart imprisioned
While the devil go free
No light in heaven

No light for me
