The Snows They Melt The Soonest – Cara Dillon – letras

The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to singThe corn it ripens fastest when the frosts are settlin inAnd when the young man tells me that my face he’ll soon forgetBefore we part I’ll wage a crown, he’s fain to follow yetAnd the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to singThe swallows fly without a thought as long as it is springBut when spring blows and winter goes my love then you’ll be freeFor all your pride to follow me across the ragin mainThe snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to singAnd the bee that flew when summer shone in winter can not stingI’ve seen the young man’s anger melt between the night and the mornSo it’s surely not a harder thing to melt a young man’s scornSo don’t you bid me farewell here, no farewell I receive,For you will lie with me my love and kiss then take your leaveAnd I’ll wait here ’til the moorcock calls and the Martin takes the windFor the snows they melt the soonest when the wind begins to sing.
