Demon Lover - Steeleye Span

Where have you been my long lost love

This seven long years and more

Seeking gold for thee my love

And riches of great store

I might have married a king’s daughter

Far far beyond the sea

But I refused the golden crown

All for the love of thee

What have you to keep me with

If I with you should go

If I forsake my husband dear

And my young son also

Chorus I’ll show you where the white lilies grow

On the banks of Italy

I’ll show you where the white fishes swim

At the bottom of the sea

Seven ships all on the sea

The eighth brought me to land

With four and twenty mariners

And music on every hand

She set her foot upon the ship

No mariners could behold

The sails were of the shining silk

The masts of beaten gold

Oh what are you high hills

The sun shines sweetly in

Those are the hills of heaven my love

Where you will never win

What is that mountain yonder there

Where evil winds do blow

Yonder’s the mountain of hell he cried

Where you and I must go

He took her up to the top mast high

To see what he could see

He sunk the ship in a flash of fire

To the bottom of the sea
