00:00You

00:30You

00:35It was many and many a year ago in a kingdom by the sea

00:39Had a maiden there lived whom you may know by the name of Annabelle Lee

00:44This maiden she lived with no other thought than to love and be loved by me

00:48I was a child and she was a child in a kingdom by the sea

00:53But we loved with the love that was more than love

00:56I and my Annabelle Lee with the love that the winged Syrax of heaven coveted her and me

01:05Hey, I'm looking at I just found these letters and thought it might be interesting

01:13Let me not the marriage of true minds admit impotence

01:16Love is not love which alters when alteration finds or bends with the remover to remove

01:21Love's not times fool through rosy lips and cheeks within its bending sickles compass come

01:27Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks

01:30But bears it out even to the edge of doom if this be error and upon me proved I never writ nor no man ever loved

01:37Suddenly he awoke and was running raw in raw seemed hot khaki his sweat heavy

01:43Stumbling across a field of clods towards a green hedge that dazzled with rifle fire hearing bullets smacking the belly out of the air

01:50That was sad, yeah kind of but I

01:54Have an idea. Yeah

01:57Yeah

01:58We should go downstairs. Okay

02:02Yeah

02:06We met we married a long time ago we worked long hours wages were low

02:11No, telly no radio. No bath times were hard. Just a cold water tap and a walk up the yard

02:18No holidays abroad, no carpet on floors. We had coal on fires never locked doors our children arrived

02:24No pill in those days. We brought them up without the doll aid. No volume. No drugs. No LSD

02:30We cured all pains with a cup of tea if you were sick

02:33You were treated at once not fill in a form and come back next month, but now I'm alone

02:38I look back through the years. I don't think of the bad times the troubles and tears

02:42Flowers need sunshine violets need do all the angels in heaven. No, I need you

02:47Years may fly by tears may dry, but my love for you all will never die
