She Moves Through the Fair
My young love said to me my mother won't mind
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind
And she laid her hand on me and this she did say
It will not be long love 'til our wedding day
She stepped away from me, and she went through the fair
And fondly I watched her move here and move there
And then she went homeward with one star awake
As the swan in the evening moves over the lake
Last night she came to me, my true love came in
And so softly she came that her feet made no din
And she laid her hand on me, and this she did say
It will not be long love 'til our wedding day
And my father won't slight you for your lack of kind
And she laid her hand on me and this she did say
It will not be long love 'til our wedding day
She stepped away from me, and she went through the fair
And fondly I watched her move here and move there
And then she went homeward with one star awake
As the swan in the evening moves over the lake
Last night she came to me, my true love came in
And so softly she came that her feet made no din
And she laid her hand on me, and this she did say
It will not be long love 'til our wedding day
