Willowood - The Amazing Blondel

Gladwin

Each day you pass the village green

But seldom look my way

Each day I sit just in between

The words I want to say

Chorus:

My love I’ve viewed you from afar

I’d woo you if I could

Meet me tonight by the miller’s stream

'Neath mossy willowood

I’ll bring you wine and the velvet black rose

To adorn your tussled hair

We’ll dream and as the evening goes

Forget our every care

Chorus

I’ll bring you scarves of eastern silk

And raiments laced with gold

To grace your skin as white as milk

And shield you from the cold

Chorus

While woodland’s sleeping

No-one is peeping

Just moonbeams leaping

Tonight

So wear you clouts of satin fine

And let your hair hang low

The leaf green nymph a spell will bind

To never let you go Chorus
