My young love said to me, "My mother won't mind |
| [00:17.16] |
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind" |
| [00:26.14] |
And she stepped away from me and this she did say |
| [00:35.14] |
It will not be long, love, till our wedding day" |
| [00:53.23] |
As she stepped away from me and she moved through the fair |
| [01:02.11] |
And fondly I watched her move here and move there |
| [01:10.99] |
And then she turned homeward with one star awake |
| [01:19.94] |
Like the swan in the evening moves over the lake |
| [01:38.00] |
The people were saying no two e'er were wed |
| [01:46.80] |
But one had a sorrow that never was said |
| [01:55.90] |
And I smiled as she passed with her goods and her gear |
| [02:04.77] |
And that was the last time that I saw of my dear |
| [02:31.95] |
The people were saying no two e'er were wed |
| [02:40.71] |
But one had a sorrow that never was said |
| [02:49.69] |
And I smiled as she passed with her goods and her gear |
| [02:58.62] |
And that was the last time that I saw of my dear |
| [03:09.03] |
Last night she came to me my dead love came in |
| [03:19.25] |
And so softly she came that her feet made no din |
| [03:27.80] |
As she laid her hand on me and this she did say |
| [03:36.85] |
"It will not be long, love, till our wedding day" |
