I'll Venture Through England

Never to return, lamenting tales of lost lovers. Over the hill, I'll search, until the ghostly spectre of my love appears to me. Time and misfortune keeps us apart, but by way of the wind, fate brings you back to me. An apparition at night, in the corner, in the dark, where are you my love?

Medieval ballads, tortured tunes of separation, this mix is haunted by loss. Wherever they may be, they have half my heart. Lost in battle, my soul goes a wandering.
