One Night As I Lay On My Bed - John Jones

One Night As I Lay On My Bed - John Jones
Written by：d. p.
One night as I lay on my bed
I dreamed about a pretty maid
I was so distressed I could take no rest
Love did torment me so
So away to my true love I did go
But when I came to my love's window
I boldly called her by her name
Saying it was for your sake I'm come here so late
Through this bitter frost and snow
So it's open your window my love do
My mum and dad they are both awake
And they will be sure for to hear us speak
There'll be no excuse then but sore abuse
Many as a bitter word and blow
So begone from my window my love do
Your mum and dad they are both asleep
And they are sure not to hear us speak
For they're sleeping sound on their bed of down
And they draw their breath so low
So open your window my love do
My love arose and she opened the door
And just like an angel she stood on the fioor
Her eyes shone bright like the stars at night
And no diamonds could shine so
So in with my true love I did go
So in with my true love I did go
