Craig Herbertson - Bonnie Light Horseman lyrics

When Bonnie commanded his armies to stand he levelled his cannon all over the land he levelled his cannon his victory to gain and slew my light horseman on the way comin' hame. Broken hearted I'll wander broken hearted I'll remain since my bonnie light horseman in the wars he was slain. If I was a small bird and had wings to fly I'd fly oer the ocean to where my love lies and with my fond wings I'd beat over his grave and kiss the pale lips lieing cold in the clay. Now the dove she laments for her mate as she flies oh where tell me where is my darling she cries and where in this wide world is there one to compare with my bonnie light horseman who was slain in the wars.
