Lyrics
My young love said to me
My mother won't mind
And my father won't slight you
For your lack of kind

And she laid her hand on me
And this she did say
It will not be long, love
Till our wedding day

As she stepped away from me
And she moved through the fair
And fondly I watched her
Move here and move there

And then she turned homeward
With one star awake
Like the swan in the evening
Moves over the lake

The people were saying
No two e'er were wed
But one had a sorrow
That never was said

And I smiled as she passed
With her goods and her gear
And that was the last
That I saw of my dear

Last night she came to me
My dead love came in

So softly she came
That her feet made no din

As she laid her hand on me
And this she did say
It will not be long, love
'Til our wedding day
