once i had a sweetheart now i have none
she’s gone and leaves me to sorrow and moan
she’s gone and left she’s gone and left me
last night in my slumber i dreamed i did see
my own precious jewel sat smiling at me
but when i awaked i found it not so
my eyes like a fountain the tears overflowed
she’s gone and left me she’s gone and left me
i’ll venture to coasts you once made claim
my life i’ll venture on watery mains
i’ll venture through and through and through
the rest of my life i’ll venture t’wards you
she’s gone and left me she’s gone and left me

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250
