Early summer's morning In dawning light revealed The secret of a woman Found on Chapel Field Gaze concealed A dark and silent eve Shadows cast Two figures as they leave Game so clear A heart as black as sin Foolish girl He seeks to lure you in I'm here my darling Meeting as you asked Why linger here? We're together at last Let's steal away and Start our life anew When we are married I'll give myself to you Silent screams Chilling now the ghostly air Maiden found With neck and ankle bare Fireflies In the meadow watching crow Mary's corpse Weighs upon the grass below A humble girl told to be discreet Whispered words hid A cruel and dark deceit You had promised to Make me your true wife I only wanted your Love to fill my life Strong in faith and virtue A heart and mind so pure Her innocence was taken Sweet Mary breathes no more All things lost All that I did not tell Tears of shame A bitter last farewell Forgive me now Heart filled with looming dread Mortal sins Left hanging by a thread I sometimes saw you watching from afar Now I know your secret kept us far apart I always wanted to love and care for you I always longed for you to know our truth Darling daughter with eyes of violet blue Why did fear and pride keep me away from you? Dearest father you came to me too late Forever now on Chapel Field victims of our fate
