[00:03.22] Abroad as I was walking
[00:09.56] One evening in the spring
[00:13.06] I heard a maid in Bedlam
[00:16.70] So sweetly for to sing
[00:20.75] Her chain she rattled with her hands
[00:24.27] And thus replied she
[00:27.77] I love my love
[00:29.94] Because I know
[00:31.88] My love loves me
[00:38.92] Oh my cruel parents
[00:42.28] Are being too unkind
[00:45.94] They drove and punish me
[00:49.04] And trouble my mind
[00:53.61] For though I'm ruined for his love
[00:56.28] Contented will I be
[01:01.21] I love my love
[01:03.27] Because I know
[01:04.73] My love loves me
[01:12.29] Would I become a swallow
[01:15.56] Ascend into the air
[01:19.30] And if I lost my lover
[01:23.37] And could not find him there
[01:26.64] I quickly would become a fish
[01:30.47] And search the flowing sea
[01:33.99] I love my love
[01:36.39] Because I know
[01:38.18] My love loves me
[01:45.26] With straw I'll make a garland
[01:48.84] And dress it very fine
[01:52.68] I'll mix the wame with roses
[01:55.80] Lily pink and tyne
[02:00.08] I will preserve it for my love
[02:03.69] When he returns from sea
[02:07.44] I love my love
[02:09.57] Because I know
[02:11.36] My love loves me
[02:18.40] Just as she was sadly weeping
[02:22.06] Her love came on the land
[02:25.65] Hearing she was in Bedlam
[02:29.31] He ran straight out of hand
[02:32.98] And as he entered into the gates
[02:35.43] He heard her sigh and say
[02:40.68] I love my love
[02:42.70] Because I know
[02:45.38] My love loves me
[02:51.42] He stood and gazed on her
[02:54.84] Hearing his love complain
[02:58.45] He could not stand any longer
[03:02.11] He bled in every vein
[03:05.92] He flew in to her snowy white arms
[03:09.51] And thus replied he
[03:13.27] I love my love
[03:15.13] Because I know
[03:16.99] My love loves me
