Annabel Lee
It was many and many a year ago in a kingdom by the sea
That a maiden there lived whom you may know by the name of Annabel Lee
And this maid she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me
She was a child and I was a child in this kingdom by the sea
But we loved with a love that was more than love, I and my Annabel Lee
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven coveted her and me
And this was the reason that long ago, in this kingdom by the sea
A wind blew out a cloud by night, chilling my beautiful Annabel Lee
So that her highborn kinsman came and bore her away from me
To shut her up in a sepulchure in this kingdom by the sea
The angels not half so happy in heaven went envying her and me
Yes, that waws the reason as all men know in this kingdom by the sea
That the wind came out of the cloud chilling and killing my Annabel Lee
But our love it was stronger by far than the love of those who were older
than we
Of many far wiser than we and neither the angels in heaven above
Nor the demons down under the sea
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams of the beautiful
Annabel Lee
And the stars never rise, but I see the bright eyes of the beautiful
Annabel Lee
And so all the night tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride
In her sepulchure there by the sea
In her tomb by the sounding sea
