Once Loved A Boy

I once loved a boy, and a bonnie, bonnie boy
Who would come and go at my request
I loved him so well, and so very, very well
That I built him a bower in my breast
In my breast
That I built him a bower in my breast

I once loved a boy, and a bonnie, bonnie boy
And I boy that I thought was my own
But he loves another girl better than me
And has taken his flight and has gone
And has gone
He has taken his flight and has gone

That girl that has taken my own bonnie boy
Let her make of him all that she can
For whether he loves me or he loves me not
I will walk with my love now and then
Now and then
I will walk with my love now and then
