[00:15.68]The Snows They Melt The Soonest Lyrics
[00:16.58]
[00:36.76]The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
[00:46.88]And the corn it ripens fastest when the frosts are settling in
[00:56.44]And when the young man tells me that my face he'll soon forget
[01:07.75]Before we part I'll wage a crown, he's fain to follow yet
[01:18.39]
[01:21.67]And the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
[01:32.88]The swallow flies without a thought as long as it is spring
[01:43.39]But when spring goes and winter blows my love then you'll be free
[01:53.59]For all your pride to follow me across the raging main
[02:06.77]
[02:09.61]And the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
[02:34.63]And the bee that flew when summer shone in winter cannot sting
[02:44.78]And I've seen a young man's anger melt between the night and morn
[02:54.69]So it's surely not a harder thing to melt a young man's scorn
[03:16.87]So don't you bid me farewell here, no farewell I receive,
[03:20.10]For you will lie with me my love then kiss and take your leave
[03:31.48]And I'll wait here 'til the moorcock calls and the Martin takes the wind
[03:44.60]For the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
