Oh Lassy! Oh Lassy! with sad eyes of green
tell me the story, that those eyes have seen...
all the glory and sorrow in between...
oh Lassy! oh Lassy!...what have those eyes seen...
Well sit down and Ill tell you, she said with a sigh...
its not very easy, but Ill give it a try
Ill start where it ended Ill start where I die
Ill end where I started if I don't start to cry...
We met in the evening, we met by the wood
the stars were all gleaming and the full moons they stood
hearts were awoken, with passions embrace
words were soft spoken, they filled up the space..
I knew he was leaving, I knew long before
but my heart was deceiving, what I could not ignore
The kiss of my soldier the last kiss of its kind
the kiss of my soldier when he once was mine...
He told me he loved me, sealed with that kiss
we held onto each other, it shouldnt be like this
our tears were all gleaming, under full moons that stood
as we wept with each other, our last night in the wood.
Oh Lassy! Oh Lassy!with sad eyes of green,
a tragic love story, a wistful nights dream
all the glory and the sorrow in be tween
Oh Lassy dear Lassy, what those sad green eyes,,have seen.
