[00:00.00] she's like a swallow that flies so high,
[00:06.10] she's like the river that never runs dry,
[00:11.48] she's like the sunshine on the lee shore,
[00:16.44] she loves her love and love is no more.
[00:28.46] 'tis out in the meadow this fair maid did go,
[00:33.24] picking the lovely primrose,
[00:38.28] the more she plucked the more she pulled,
[00:43.49] until she's got her apron full.
[00:55.39] she climbed on yonder hill above,
[01:00.33] to give a rose unto her love,
[01:05.44] she gave him one, she gave him three,
[01:10.63] she gave her heart for company.
[01:19.00] and as they sat on yonder hill,
[01:23.55] his heart grew hard, so harder still,
[01:28.68] he has two hearts instead of one,
[01:33.78] she says, young man what have you done
[02:03.84] how foolish, foolish you must be,
[02:08.83] to think i loved no one but thee,
[02:13.86] this world 's not made for one alone,
[02:19.18] i take delight in everyone
