The Wild Swans On The Lake
FOY VANCE · The Wild Swan 2016 · Track 12 of 12
Atop the leaves Neath an autumn moon Though soon the morn shall break
For now The air is calm and cool And the wild swan's on the lake Oh the wild swan's on the lake my love The wild swan's on the lake
For now The air is calm and cool And the wild swan's on the lake
An arch of willow O'er our skin bared And candles hanging from the silver birch
With a crown of daisies on your scented hair For a bride thee I shall take For a Bride thee I shall take my love A Bride thee I shall take
With a crown of daisies on your scented hair For a Bride thee I shall take
We'll wake the morn And greet the dawn With hearts entwined and free
And when the sun has begun to dance upon you Filtering through the leaves Filtering through the leaves my love Filtering through the leaves
Oh when the sun has begun to dance upon Filtering through the leaves
The seasons shift And settle in And a midday walk we'll take
The winter winds are soft Then still And the swans are on the lake
Oh the swans are on the lake my love The swans are on the lake The winter winds are soft Then still And the swans are on the lake
