Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It was many and many a year ago, in a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know by the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought than to love and be loved by me.
[Chorus]
Oh, Annabel Lee, our love was stronger by far than the love,
Of those who were older than we, of many far wiser than we.
Neither the angels in Heaven above nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
[Verse 2]
She was a child and I was a child, in this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love, I and my Annabel Lee.
With a love that the winged seraphs of Heaven coveted her and me.
[Chorus]
Oh, Annabel Lee, our love was stronger by far than the love,
Of those who were older than we, of many far wiser than we.
Neither the angels in Heaven above nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
[Bridge]
And this was the reason that, long ago, in this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling my beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsmen came and bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre, in this kingdom by the sea.
[Chorus]
Oh, Annabel Lee, our love was stronger by far than the love,
Of those who were older than we, of many far wiser than we.
Neither the angels in Heaven above nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
[Outro]
But our love it was stronger by far than the love of those who were older than we,
Of many far wiser than we. And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea, can ever dissever my soul from the soul,
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
