Lovelight
I thought I lived
Before you came
I loved the laughing Sun
The smiling Moon
The Wind in my hair
The Rain weeping that
The Wildflowers might bloom
I heard the Robin sing
In Springtime
And smelt the summer sweetness of the Sea
I saw the silver aspens
Turn to gold in the Fall
And rejoiced in the
Sunlight harboured in golden leaves
But now you’re here
And this little valley
Dreaming between the high mountains
Is wrapped in snow
How warm it is, my Love
Lying here in your arms
The wolves singing to the Moon
