There was a fire in the courtyard
And the coals were burning bright
There was a fire in the courtyard
And the coals were burning bright
I warmed myself among the servants
Three times I denied you that night
You said: When you have turned
You said it before the fire
You said: When you have turned
You said it before the fire
You said when, and not if
Your word held, though I was a liar
There was a charcoal fire beside the lake
With fish and bread
There was a charcoal fire beside the lake
With fish and bread
You gave us bread and fish to eat
And I was fed
Three times you asked me by the lake
Do you love me?
Three times you asked me by the lake
Do you love me?
With every question came the call
To tend your sheep
Two charcoal fires stay with me
One in the courtyard
One beside the sea
Two charcoal fires stay with me
One in the courtyard
One beside the sea
At one I denied you
At one you asked me
Do you love me?
You said: When you have turned
You said it before the fire
You said: When you have turned
You said it before the fire
You said when, and not if
Your word held, though I was a liar
You fed me
You asked me
You gave me your sheep to care for
