| In the soft light a lady lay
|
| By a vale in the woodland deep
|
| With the sunshine’s golden ray
|
| Shinin' down on the river deep
|
| Took my boat across the waves
|
| With my hopes strong in my grasp
|
| Might I see the silver in the rain
|
| Might I be with you at last
|
| Like faithful swallows they come
|
| With a winter that’s closin' in
|
| When no wind no cold can numb
|
| Like faithful swallows they come
|
| 'Til hear the silvery rain
|
| Pulling me into their line
|
| Soft the lady lay
|
| In vale and the moonlight lowlight dim
|
| With the sunshine locked away
|
| I’m climbing over the ridge so steep
|
| Heart set on her warm embrace
|
| With my patience tight in grasp
|
| Then I heard the silvery rain
|
| Taken by the silvery rain
|
| Taking in the silvery rain
|
| Soft the lady lay
|
| In the soft light a lady lay
|
| By a vale in the woodland deep
|
| With the sunshine’s golden ray
|
| Shinin' over the river deep
|
| 'Till I hear the heavenly rain
|
| I keep running lines on mine
|
| I keep running like a child
|
| Soft the lady lay
|
| In a vale and the moonlight lowlight dim
|
| With the sunshine locked away
|
| I’m climbing over the ridge so steep
|
| Heart set on her warm embrace
|
| With my patience tight in grasp
|
| Then I heard the silvery rain
|
| Taken by the silvery rain
|
| Taking in the silvery rain |
