She Moved Through The Fair lyrics

My love said to me

'My Mother won't mind

And me Father won't slight you

For your lack of kind'

Then she stepped away from me

And this she did say

'It will not be long, love

'Til our wedding day'

She stepped away from me

And she moved through the Fair

And fondly I watched her

Move here and move there

And she went her way homeward

With one star awake

As the swan in the evening

Moves over the lake

I dreamt it last night

That my true love came in

So softly she entered

Her feet made no din

How she came close beside me

And this she did say

'It will not be long love

Till our wedding day'
