One, I Love Lyrics

One, I love. Two she loves and three she's true to me.

All of my friends fell out with me because I kept your company
But let them say whatever they will
I love my love with a free good will.
One, I love, two she loves, and three she's true to me
They tell me he's poor they tell me he's young
I tell them all to hold their tongue
If they could part the sand from the sea
They never could part my love from me.
One, I love, two she loves, and three she's true to me
It's over the mountain he must go because his fortune is too low
With an aching heart and a troubled mind he's leaving his own true love behind.

One, I love, two she loves and three she's true to me
When I'm awake I find no rest until his head lies on my breast
And when I'm asleep I'm dreaming of my one, my dear, my own true love.

One, I love, two she loves and three she's true to me
When the fire to ice will run and when the tide no longer turns
And when the rocks melt with the sun my love for you will have just begun.
One, I love, two she loves, three she's true to me
One, I love, two she loves and three she's true to me.
And you know we can't stop.
