lyrics

On gossamer wings the fairy sings
And glides right over the meadow
With her hair of gold
And her clothes so bold
And her boots of shiny green leather

I saw the fairy in the woods
A bathing in the stream
Her beauty was so magical
I thought it was a dream
Then she turned and walked away
And beckoned me to come
I walked down to the waters edge
The stream had turned to stone

On gossamer wings the fairy sings
And glides right over the meadow
With her hair of gold
And her clothes so bold
And her boots of shiny green leather

I held the fairy in my arms
And asked her to be my wife
I will if you can pledge to me
Your body, soul and life
The answer that I gave to her
You can surely guess
Would I give her body, soul and life
I told the fairy Yes (yes)

On gossamer wings the fairy sings
And glides right over the meadow
With her hair of gold
And her clothes so bold
And her boots of shiny green leather

I looked into her dark brown eyes
And clearly could see my fate
This woman I was holding close
She was the devil incarnate
And as she kissed my willing lips
I felt my life drain away
I knew then by the stony stream
Forever I would stay

The next you’re out along this place
Look closely at the trees
In every trunk you’ll see a face
One belongs to me
The seasons come and the seasons go
The moons they wax and wane
The river ebbs and the river flows
But forever here I’ll remain

On gossamer wings the fairy sings
And glides right over the meadow
With her hair of gold
And her clothes so bold
And her boots of shiny green leather

On gossamer wings the fairy sings
And glides right over the meadow
With her hair of gold
And her clothes so bold
And her boots of shiny green leather
