And Also The Trees - Mary Of The Woods lyrics

rate me

When I woke I thought of you

Looked out of the window at this familiar view

I watched the kites fly high above the steeples

And the washing lines that float

With sailor's clothes

When I woke I thought of you.

In the vale there's a meadow

Where a rare flower grows

Oh Mary won't you be my girl.

When the land falls away

And the sea there lies rolling

Oh Mary it's a simple world.

When your headscarf falls like this

And the sunlight's on your lips

Oh Mary won't you be my girl.

I took a walk down to the parson's house

Met the cooper and the priest on the way there

They pointed up to the woods for you

Oh Mary I'll find you somewhere.
