Lyrics adapted from "Hamlet"

lyrics

Never Come Again
words by W. Shakespeare/John Allee
music by John Allee

How should I your true love know
From another one?
By his cockle hat and staff
And his sandal shoes

He is dead and gone, lady
He is dead and gone
At his head a grass green turf
At his heels a stone

He is dead and gone, lady
He is dead and gone
He will never come again
He will never come

White his shroud as the mountain snow
Larded all with flowers
Which bewept to the grave did not go
With true-love showers

White his shroud as the mountain snow
Larded with sweet flowers
Which bewept to the grave did not go
With true-love, true-love showers

He is dead and gone, lady
He is dead and gone
In his bed the cold, wet earth
In his stead a song

He is dead and gone, lady
He is dead and gone
He will never come again
Never come, never come again
