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