as i went a walking way down by the green wood   down where the ivy and lauriel entwine   i heard a bird singing his sad plaintive love song   he mourned for his true love   as i mourned for mine      i brought my love flowers and tied all with ribbons   soon the sweet flowers were faded and gone   like the flowers my true loves`   affection has withered   which leaves me alone here   to pine and to mourn      ever the wind keep on changing their journey   ever the waves keep on changing the sea   ever green summer keep changing to autumn   my true love has changed   there is no change in me      my constant companions are sadness and sorrow   trouble has never forsakken me yet   but wherever i go `til my days are all numbered   the love of my s0ul   will never forget      ever the wind keep on changing their journey   ever the waves keep on changing the sea   ever green summer keep changing to autumn   my true love has changed   there is no change in me
