Bluebeard

The maiden said I'll marry you I'll be yours and I'll be true
I'll consent to be your bride All my days at your side
That is how I'll live my life A maiden no more
Her mother and her sister warned
The man he was not natural born
His eyes were black and his beard was blue But the maiden saw her own love true There was nothing they could do
Maiden no more
The man gave her a ring of keys Professed his love down on his knees Said everything I have is free
But this one door and this on key
He said don't you look in there
Or I'll kill you cold and dead I swear Gave her such a weight to bear
Then the man, he rode away
And the bride went wild night and day Only to find she wanted more
She had the key, she found the door A stain that was not there before Maiden no more
The man came home to take her life To cut her with a cold, gray knife
To lay her there with all the rest Blood and bones and faded dress To cast her to the deep darkness
But the man with his intentions stated Found he'd underestimated
The forces of the sea and sand
The light and the life of the land
All rose up with a hundred hands All rose up and killed that man All rose up with a hundred hands All rose up and killed that man Maiden no more
