The Wild Swans on the Lake

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 And we’ll wake the morn And greet the dawn With hearts entwined and free And when the sun's begun to dance upon you Filtering through the leaves Filtering through the leaves, my love Filtering through the leaves When's the sun has begun to dance upon you Filtering through the leaves And the seasons shift and settle in And a midday walk we’ll take The winter winds are soft and 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 and still And the swans are on the lake
