Eleven long nights I lay with a man and I never told anyone" "If eleven long nights you lay with a man, you never shall lie with me I'd rather marry the widow's daughter who ran home and told her mammy Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Blood On The Pages, Burn Bridges Keep Warm, Casting Curses, Concrete Atlas, I Dread The Time When Your Mouth Begins To Call Me Hunter, I Dread The Time Your Mouth Beings To Call Me Hunt, If They Move Kill Them, Letter Of Intent, Lusitania, Mercer Island, Motion Sickness, Next Day Flight, Silent Jury, Slow To Standing, Soundtrack To The Ride, South St 1 Am, South Street 1AM, Still Paradise, The Culling Song, The Treachery Of Images, Welcome To Last Year, Whatever It Takes, Who Brings A Knife To A Gunfight, YoungBrashHopeful, A Dark Omen, Doryan The Enlightened, Fight For Your King, Guardian Stones, Of Wars In Osyrhia, On The Path To Fury, Rebirth, Ride With The Sun, The Fellowship, The Storyteller, 11, AEnglar Finns Dom, Allt Foer Bla, Hos Dej aer Jag Underbar, Inte Som Alla Andra, Naestan Foer Bra (Foer Att Vara Sant), Puzzel, Tills Natt Blir Dag, Utan Dina Andetag, Varje Gang Jag Ser Dej, Varje Sekund Varje Minut, Viskar, I Just Cant, You Used To Love Me, A Winter Wassail, All Lovers Lost, Other Fairport Convention song Lyrics A Sailors Life Lyrics After Halloween Lyrics Angel Delight Lyrics Autopsy Lyrics The Banks Of Sweet Primroses Lyrics Big William Lyrics Book Song Lyrics Bring em Down Lyrics Bring Em Down Lyrics Cajun Woman Lyrics Chelsea Morning Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Fairweather Lyrics Fairyland Lyrics Fairytale Lyrics Faith Lyrics Faith And The Muse Lyrics Faith Blind Lyrics Faith Evans Lyrics Faith Evans F/ 112 Lyrics Faith Evans F/ Carl Thomas Lyrics Faith Evans F/ Mary J.
