Never lyrics

Ulrika

You who so despise me

Mock me and chastise me

You who call me harlot and whore

You make me strong again

Righteous congregation

Pillars of the nation

I am in your debt evermore

Your scorn is my salvation

Here, they laugh, they point, they turn away

Here I die by inches every day

Dying of sermons, dying of judgements

Guilty as charged. Let justice be done.

Never shall my girl oblige a pleasure seeker

Not like me, the one they call Ulrika

Ulrika - "The Happy One"

Men came in the darkness

Scratching at my window

Men I know by sight - and by name

They bought their share of me

Councillors and churchmen

How they came a-wooing

Stealing home in silence and shame

Their shame is my renewing

Here I find my path, I see my aim

Here my steel is tested in the flame

I swear I'll take you

Far from their laughter

Now and hereafter,

I'll see it done

Never shall they scorn you

As they've scorned your mother

you will know your joys like any other

As God is my witness

Never - Never

So swears Ulrika - "The Happy One"
