A fun abstraction from the 'official' lyrics by Anthony Newly (It reminds me of Bowie's early stuff):
The song was collected by S. Baring-Gould in 1905 and was credited as traditional Devon. It dates from earlier:

Come To My Window
Truly, a folk/rock anthem:
Tim Hart was a founder member of Steeleye Span. Not much I can say about the original tune, only according to my my book (See labels) the text and melody comes from S. Baring-Gould's Songs of the West.
Sadly, Tim died in 2009:
