[00:00.00] Loreena McKennitt - She Moved Through The Fair
[00:19.94] arranged and adapted by Loreena McKennitt
[00:24.94]
[00:29.94] My love said to me
[00:36.26] My Mother won't mind
[00:42.58] And me Father won't slight you
[00:49.23] For your lack of kind
[00:55.33] Then she stepped away from me
[01:01.31] And this she did say
[01:08.06] It will not be long love
[01:14.87] Till our wedding day
[01:21.28]
[01:23.14] She stepped away from me
[01:29.71] And she moved through the fair
[01:35.46] And fondly I watched her
[01:40.91] Move here and move there
[01:46.48] And she went her way homeward
[01:51.52] With one star awake
[01:57.63] As the swans in the evening
[02:03.92] Move over the lake
[02:09.01]
[02:11.49] The people were saying
[02:16.06] No two e'er were wed
[02:20.69] But one has a sorrow
[02:25.41] That never was said
[02:30.07] And she smiled as she passed me
[02:34.90] With her goods and her gear
[02:39.41]
[02:40.47] And that was the last
[02:45.74] That I saw of my dear.
[02:51.88]
[02:53.61] I dreamed it last night
[03:00.40] That my true love came in
[03:06.86] So softly she entered
[03:12.48] Her feet made no din
[03:17.99] she came close beside me
[03:23.02] And this she did say
[03:30.12] It will not be long love
[03:37.15] Till our wedding day.
[03:44.51]
