Lyrics (unofficial)

(...three, four)

Meet my beloved in the wood
Oh man she gonna feel so good
When cupid's arrow fell
Even the trees are under her spell
She's walking with her fox
All along the mossy rocks

Outside the pretty flower eye
The shadow of a yesteryear
And I like you baby
Yes I do
And a night is coming
For me and you

Come on now sister now move along
Everybody here wants to sing your song
Song about the blossom that start in the trees
Song about the love that bring you to your knees
She's talking to her god
In the ferns and goldenrod

Outside the pretty flower eye
The shadow of a yesteryear
And I like you baby
Yes I do
And a night is coming
For me and you

She bring the birds and dragonfly
She sings a nothing lullaby
Water in her will
Sweeter than the dew on daffodil
She's wading through the brook
Under glade and shady nook

Outside the pretty flower eye
The shadow of a yesteryear
And I like you baby
Yes I do
Yes I like you baby
Yes I do
And a night is coming
For me and you

(Up't away and stay away, away)

[much whooping and yeah, yeah-ing]

(Alright)
