The soldier traveling from the north
as the moon shone bright and clearly
The lady knew the gentleman's horse
because she loved him dearly
She took his horse by the bridal reign
she led him to the stable
There's hay and oats for your horse, my love
go feed him you are able
She took him by the lily-white hand
She led him to the table
There's cake and wine for you, my love
Go eat and drink your welcome
Well she pulled off her blue silk gown
She laid it on the table
and he pulled off his uniform suit
and got in bed with the lady
I hear some trumpet sound and I
must go and meet it
Oh soldier dear, don't leave me here
For I am ruined forever
When silver bells in conch shells stand
is when you and I shall marry
Oh soldier dear, don't leave me here
For I am ruined forever
Oh soldier dear, don't leave me here
For I am ruined forever

Even now
I love you
like the ocean
loves the moon
The tide's
lovely motion
you pull me
into you
My eyes are wide
I'm dreaming
I'd do anything for you
And still
in the silence
I hold
this truth
This holy promise:
I do
My eyes are wide
I'm dreaming
I'd do anything for you
