Annabelle Lee

6m
Many a year ago In a kingdom by the sea
There lived a maiden you may know by the name of Annabelle Lee

No other thought did trouble her mind but to love and be loved by me
We were children both in this kingdom by the sea

But we loved with a love that was more than love I and my Annabelle Lee
With a love that the winged angels high coveted her and me

This was the reason long ago in this kingdom by the sea
A wind blew from a stormy cloud that took my Annabelle Lee

Then her wicked brothers came to steal her away from me
They shut her up in a tomb below this kingdom by the sea

But no maiden’s grave could sever my soul from the love she bore for me
For the moon don’t beam without a dream of my darling Annabelle Lee

For many years I’ve wandered through this kingdom by the sea
I’ve laid myself beside the bones of my beautiful Annabelle Lee

I’ll make my bed near the rising tide
In her tomb by the sounding sea
