The Snows They Melt The Soonest (Live)
The snows they melt the soonest when the winds
begin to sing And the corn it ripens fastest when
the frosts are settling in And when the young man
tells me that my face he'll soon forget Before we
part I'll wage a crown, he's fain to follow yet
And the snows they melt the soonest when the winds
begin to sing The swallow flies without a thought
as long as it is spring But when spring goes and
winter blows my love then you'll be free For all
your pride to follow me across the raging main
And the snows they melt the soonest when the winds
begin to sing And the bee that flew when summer
shone in winter cannot sting And I've seen a young
man's anger melt between the night and morn So
it's surely not a harder thing to melt a young
man's scorn
So don't you bid me farewell here, no farewell I
receive, For you will lie with me my love then
kiss and take your leave And I'll wait here 'til
the moorcock calls and the Martin takes the wind
For the snows they melt the soonest when the winds
begin to sing
begin to sing And the corn it ripens fastest when
the frosts are settling in And when the young man
tells me that my face he'll soon forget Before we
part I'll wage a crown, he's fain to follow yet
And the snows they melt the soonest when the winds
begin to sing The swallow flies without a thought
as long as it is spring But when spring goes and
winter blows my love then you'll be free For all
your pride to follow me across the raging main
And the snows they melt the soonest when the winds
begin to sing And the bee that flew when summer
shone in winter cannot sting And I've seen a young
man's anger melt between the night and morn So
it's surely not a harder thing to melt a young
man's scorn
So don't you bid me farewell here, no farewell I
receive, For you will lie with me my love then
kiss and take your leave And I'll wait here 'til
the moorcock calls and the Martin takes the wind
For the snows they melt the soonest when the winds
begin to sing
