Lyrics of Mary of the woods

When i woke i thought of you
Looked out of the window at this familiar view
I watched the kites fly high above the steeples
And the washing lines that float
With sailor's clothes
When i woke i thought of you.
In the vale there's a meadow
Where a rare flower grows
Oh mary won't you be my girl.

When the land falls away
And the sea there lies rolling
Oh mary it's a simple world.
When your headscarf falls like this
And the sunlight's on your lips
Oh mary won't you be my girl.
I took a walk down to the parson's house
Met the cooper and the priest on the way there
They pointed up to the woods for you
Oh mary i'll find you somewhere.
