Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So sad, her eyes
Smiling, dark eyes
So sad, her eyes
As it began
[Verse 2]
On such a breathless night as this
Upon my brow, the lightest kiss
I walked alone
[Verse 3]
And all around the air did say
My lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known
[Verse 4]
The white queen walks and the night grows pale
Stars of lovingness in her hair
[Verse 5]
Needing, unheard
Pleading, one word
So sad, my eyes
She cannot see
[Verse 6]
How did thee fare, what have thee seen
The mother of the willow green
I call her name
And 'neath the window have I stayed
I loved the footsteps that she made
And when she came
[Verse 7]
White queen how my heart did ache
And dry my lips no word would make
So still I wait
[Verse 8]
My goddess, hear my darkest fear
I speak too late
It's forevermore that I wait
Dear friend, goodbye
No tears in my eyes
[Verse 9]
So sad it ends
As it began
