Willowood

Lyrics for Willowood

Each day you pass the village green But seldom look my way Each day I sit just in between The words I want to say My love, I've viewed you from afar I'd woo you if I could Meet me tonight by the miller's stream 'Neath mossy willow wood I'll bring you wine and a velvet black rose To adorn your tousled hair We'll drink and as the evening goes Forget our every care My love, I've viewed you from afar I'd woo you if I could Meet me tonight by the miller's stream 'Neath mossy willow wood I'll bring you scarves of eastern silk And raiments laced with gold To grace your skin as white as milk And shield you from the cold My love, I've viewed you from afar I'd woo you if I could Meet me tonight by the miller's stream 'Neath mossy willow wood Wild woodlands sleeping No one is peeping Just moonbeams leaping tonight So wear your clouds of satin fine And let your hair hang low The leafgreen nymph a spell will bind To never let you go My love, I've viewed you from afar I'd woo you if I could Meet me tonight by the miller's stream 'Neath mossy willow wood
