00:00written about 200 years later by Vaughn Williams around 1924 and slightly rewritten by me recently.
00:10And it's a very melodic piece and I tried to update it sort of in the vein of House
00:22of the Rising Sun, which if anybody ever heard the original version sounds nothing like the
00:26original.
00:34So it's sort of like the original.
00:36Well you will my dear, I must be gone soon, and leave you for a while.
00:48If I roll away I'll come back here again.
00:54If I roll 10,000 miles my dear, if I roll 10,000 miles,
01:04so far I will walk my bonnie, bonnie lass,
01:08so deep in love am I.
01:12But I never will prove false to the bonnie lass I love,
01:20till the stars fall from the sky my dear,
01:26till the stars fall from the sky.
01:32Now you will my dear, I must be gone, and leave you for a while.
01:42If I roll away I'll come back here.
01:48If I roll 10,000 miles my dear, if I roll 10,000 miles,
01:58the sea will never wash dry my dear, the rocks fell with the sun.
02:04But I never will prove false, my dear, to the bonnie, bonnie lass I love.
02:12For sake and because, that lonely turtledove,
02:16as he moans from afar on my tree,
02:22as he moans and he calls for the loss of his love,
02:28as I will do for thee my dear, as I will do for thee.
02:38Now you will my dear, I must be gone, and leave you for a while.
02:48If I roll away I'll come back here.
02:54If I roll 10,000 miles my dear, if I roll 10,000 miles,
03:04the sea will never wash dry my dear, the rocks fell with the sun.
03:10But I never will prove false, my dear, to the bonnie, bonnie lass I love.
03:16For all these things to be done my dear, for all these things to be done.
