Lyrics for Taking The Veil

In dresses white, all set for sail A little girl dreams of taking the veil In dresses white, all set for sail A little girl dreams of taking the veil On beaches clean of sand and shell A little girl dreams of taking the veil All lightning bright and thunder loud A little girl dreams safe and sound
