Meadow Green - LYRICS by Peter Rowan:
As I walked down one summer's morning,
As the rising sun did gleam.
All the dawn birds they were singin',
Singin' on the meadow green.
Way over yonder comes my sweetheart
Just like an angel in a dream.
I heard pure melody ringin',
Ringin' out on the meadow green.
Come away with me to the red, red roses
Where no man has ever been.
There our love will bloom forever,
Forever on the meadow green.
In a lightnin' flash, came a fiery stallion,
With the jet-black coal of midnight sheen.
From the forest he came prancing,
Dancing on the meadow green.
As I beheld this magic beauty,
Oh my love she rode across the stream.
And I stood pale and still as moonlight,
As moonlight on the meadow green.
Come away with me to the red, red roses,
Where no man has ever been.
Where our love will bloom forever,
Forever on the meadow green.
As the sunrise kissed the glistening dew drops,
My sweetheart could not be seen.
A haunting melody still lingers,
Lingers on the meadow green.
Them lonely hours when I wander,
To my wondering eyes it seems
I see moonlight blue and red roses.
Red roses on the meadow green.
Come away with me to the red, red roses
Where no man has ever been.
There our love will bloom forever,
Forever on the meadow green.
Come away with me to the red, red roses
Where no man has ever been.
There our love will bloom forever,
Forever on the meadow green.
