Loreena Mccennitt She Moved Through The Fair Lyrics

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
Till 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 swans in the evening
Move over the lake.

The
people were saying
No two e'er were wed
But one has a sorrow
That
never was said
And she smiled as she passed me
With her goods and her
gear
And that was the last
That I saw of my dear.

I dreamed it
last night
That my true love came in
So softly she entered
Her feet
made no din
She came close beside me
And this she did say
It will not
be long love
Till our wedding day.
