Annabelle Lee Marissa Nadler

It was many many a year ago
In a kingdom by the sea
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabelle Lee
And this maiden she lived with no other thoughts
Than to love and be loved by me

I was a child and she was a child
In this kingdom by the sea
But we loved with a love that was more than love
Lord, I and my Annabelle Lee
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
That coveted her and me

So that was the reason that long ago
In this kingdom by the sea
That a wind blew out of a cloud
Chilling my beautiful Annabelle Lee
So that her highborn kinsmen came
And bore her away from me
To shut her in a sepulcher
In this kingdom by the sea

It was many many a year ago
In a kingdom by the sea
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabelle Lee
