Oh but I was nothing to her And she was the world to me.
And now in her garden she stands All dressed in fine satin and lace My lady so cold and so strange Who finds in her heart no place. And I knew she would be my bride With a kiss for a lifetime fee.
Oh but I was nothing to her And she was the world to me.
Now in her palace grand On a flower covered bed she lies Her beautiful lids are closed Over her sad dark eyes. And among the mourners who mourn Why should I a mourner be.
When I was nothing to her And she was the world to me.
