[ti:Annabel Lee] [ar:Basil Rathbone] [al:Edgar Allan Poe - Tales & Poems] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Annabel Lee - Basil Rathbone/Edgar Allan Poe [00:01.11]It was many and many a year ago [00:02.60] [00:04.00]In a kingdom by the sea [00:05.43] [00:07.10]That a maiden there lived whom you may know [00:09.65]By the name of ANNABEL LEE [00:11.62] [00:12.90]And this maiden she lived with no other thought [00:14.98] [00:15.90]Than to love and be loved by me [00:18.86] [00:20.14]I was a child and she was a child [00:22.13]In this kingdom by the sea [00:23.23] [00:24.01]But we loved with a love that was more than love- [00:26.31] [00:26.85]I and my Annabel Lee [00:28.25] [00:29.26]With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven [00:31.25] [00:31.78]Coveted her and me [00:32.88] [00:34.66]And this was the reason that long ago [00:37.12]In this kingdom by the sea [00:38.52] [00:39.64]A wind blew out of a cloud chilling [00:42.32]My beautiful Annabel Lee; [00:43.40] [00:44.65]So that her highborn kinsman came [00:46.97] [00:47.50]And bore her away from me [00:48.87] [00:50.25]To shut her up in a sepulchre [00:51.62] [00:52.49]In this kingdom by the sea [00:54.22] [00:55.42]The angels not half so happy in heaven [00:57.93]Went envying her and me- [00:59.57] [01:00.62]Yes - that was the reason [01:03.17] [01:04.09]As all men know [01:05.33]In this kingdom by the sea [01:06.70] [01:08.23]That the wind came out of the cloud by night [01:10.98]Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee [01:13.39] [01:14.50]But our love it was stronger [01:16.08]By far than the love [01:17.39]Of those who were older than we- [01:19.04] [01:19.81]Of many far wiser than we- [01:21.13] [01:21.96]And neither the angels in heaven above [01:23.59] [01:24.39]Nor the demons down under the sea [01:26.48]Can ever dissever my soul from the soul [01:28.66] [01:29.23]Of the beautiful Annabel Lee [01:30.67] [01:33.17]For the moon never beams [01:34.20]Without bringing me dreams [01:36.26]Of the beautiful Annabel Lee [01:37.44] [01:38.53]And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes [01:41.87]Of the beautiful Annabel Lee [01:43.58] [01:44.74]And so all the night-tide [01:46.01] [01:46.87]I lie down by the side [01:48.48]Of my darling- my darling my life and my bride [01:51.61] [01:53.24]In the sepulchre there by the sea [01:55.13] [01:56.06]In her tomb by the sounding sea
