Under the Greenwood Tree

Under 
the 
greenwood 
tree,under 
the 
coolest 
shadow,whose 
love 
with 
me 
stay..who 
want 
to 
kiss 
me 
there?          
Where 
a 
tune 
of 
sweet 
merry             
Where 
birds 
chirping 
and 
singing,                        
Waiting 
they 
we 
want 
to 
sing:             
Only 
you 
i 
want 
to 
see;                               
Come 
to 
show 
your 
how 
much,Love 
or 
what 
to 
think?         
Love 
to 
live 
in 
the 
sun,Seeking 
my 
food 
i 
eat.
