Lyrics
Early summer's morning
In dawning light revealed
The secret of a woman
Found on Chapel Field
Gaze concealed
A dark and silent eve
Shadows cast
Two figures as they leave
Game so clear
A heart as black as sin
Foolish girl
He seeks to lure you in
I'm here my darling
Meeting as you asked
Why linger here?
We're together at last
Let's steal away and
Start our life anew
When we are married
I'll give myself to you
Silent screams
Chilling now the ghostly air
Maiden found
With neck and ankle bare
Fireflies
In the meadow watching crow
Mary's corpse
Weighs upon the grass below
A humble girl
Told to be discreet
Whispered words hid
A cruel and dark deceit
You had promised to
Make me your true wife
I only wanted your
Love to fill my life
Strong in faith and virtue
A heart and mind so pure
Her innocence was taken
Sweet Mary breathes no more
All things lost
All that I did not tell
Tears of shame
A bitter last farewell
Forgive me now
Heart filled with looming dread
Mortal sins
Left hanging by a thread
I sometimes saw you watching from afar
Now I know your secret kept us far apart
I always wanted to love and care for you
I always longed for you to know our truth
Darling daughter with eyes of violet blue
Why did fear and pride keep me away from you?
Dearest father you came to me too late
Forever now on Chapel Field victims of our fate
