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