The Night Visit

歌詞

I must away, love, no longer tarry This roaring tempest I have to cross I must be guided without a fall Into the arms I love the best When he came to his true love's dwelling He's knelt down gently upon a stone Through the window he's whispered soft "Is my true lover within at home?" She's raised her up from off her pillow She's raised her up from off her bed And through the window she's whispered soft "Who's that disturbing my own night's rest?" "Wake up, wake up, love, it's your own true lover Wake up, wake up, love, and let me in Oh how the wind blows and how it rains Oh I am wet, love, unto the skin" She's raised her up from off her pillow She's raised her up and let him They were locked in each other's arms Until the long night was passed and gone When the long night was passed and gone When the dark clouds, they did divide He's leaned down gently and kissed her soft He saddled up and away did ride He's mounted up on his horse and away did ride He's mounted up on his horse and away did ride
