The moon is slowly setting
And with the brightening of the sky
Another day is dawning
Where my true love lies
In the silence of the forest
The wind is in the leaves
I think her singing
Over the fields to me
I said to her, here's my heart, hold it to you
When you think of me
I said to her, here's my soul, hold it you
When you remember me
The sun is in the heavens
Warmth raises from the land
I offered her my future
I offered her my hand
Soon the moon will rise and
The day is on the wane
I look to the horizon
And think of her again
I said to her, here's my soul, hold it to you
When you think of me
I said to her, here's my heart, hold it you
When you remember me
A fog is on the river
The mist is in the trees
I think I see her walking
Over the fields to me
She's coming here to me
I said to her, here's my name, bring it along
When you come to me
I said to her, here's my soul, bring it along
When you come to me
I said to her, here's my heart, I'll take yours
When you come to me
