Blackmore's Night - Lady in black

^AmShe came to me one morning, one lonely Sunday morning Her ^Glong hair flowing in the ^Ammidwinter wind ^AmI know not how she found me, when in darkness I was walking De^Gstruction lay around me from the ^Amfight I could not win

Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ah ^Amah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ^Amah Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ah ^Amah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ^Amah

^AmShe asked me name my foe then, I said the need within some men To ^Gfight and kill their brothers, without ^Amthought of man or god ^AmAnd I begged her give me horses to trample down my enemies So ^Geager was my passion to dev^Amour this waste of life

Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ah ^Amah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ^Amah Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ah ^Amah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ^Amah

^AmShe would not think of battle that reduces men to animals So ^Geasy to begin and yet im^Ampossible to end ^AmFor she, the mother of all men, who counselled me so wisely that I ^Gfeared to walk alone again and ^Amasked if she would stay

Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ah ^Amah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ^Amah Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ah ^Amah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Gahh ah ^Amah

"^BmOh, lady, lend your hand," I cried, "And let me rest here at your side" "Have ^Afaith and trust in me", she said, and ^Bmfilled my heart with life "^BmThere is no strength in numbers, have no such misconceptions But ^Awhen you need me, be assured, I ^Bmwon't be far away"

Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Aahh ah ah ^Bmah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Aahh ah ^Bmah Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Aahh ah ah ^Bmah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Aahh ah ^Bmah

Thus, ^Emhaving spoke, she turned away and though I found no words to say I ^Dstood and watched until I saw her ^Emblack cloak disappear ^EmMy labour is no easier, but now I know I'm not alone I ^Dfind new heart each time I think u^Empon that windy day

Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Dahh ah ah ^Emah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Dahh ah ^Emah Ahh ah ahh ah ah ^Dahh ah ah ^Emah-ah Ahh ah ah ^Dahh ah ^Emah

She ^Emcame to me one morning, one lonely Sunday morning Her ^Dlong hair flowing in the ^Emmidwinter wind ^EmAnd if one day she comes to you, drink deeply from her words so wise Take ^Dcourage from her as your prize and ^Emsay, 'Hello' from me
