Pussywillows, Cattails Lyrics - Gordon Lightfoot

Pussywillows cattails soft wind and roses 

Rain pools in the woodland water to my knees 

Shivering, quivering the warm breath of spring 

Pussywillows cattails, soft winds and roses 

Catbirds and cornfields daydreams together 

Riding on the roadside, the dust gets in your eyes 

Reveling, disheveling the summer night can bring 

Pussywillows cattails, soft winds and roses 

Slanted rays and colored days stark blue horizons 

Naked limbs and wheat bins hazy afternoons 

Voicing rejoicing the wine cups to bring 

Pussywillows cattails, soft winds and roses 

Hars nights and candle lights wood fires a-blazin' 

Soft lips and fingertips resting in my soul 

Treasuring remembering the promise of spring 

Pussywillows cattails, soft winds and roses 

And roses and the soft winds
