The Lady Lyrics - Sandy Denny

The lady she had a silver tongue. 

For to sing she said, 

And maybe that's all. 

Wait for the dawn and we will have that song. 

When it ends it will seem 

That we hear silence fall. 

The lady she had a golden heart, 

For to love, she said 

And she did not lie. 

Wait for the dawn and we'll watch for the sun. 

As we turn it will seem 

To arise in the sky. 

We heard that song while watching the skies, 

Oh the sound it rang 

So clear through the cold. 

Then silence fell and the sun did arise 

On a beautiful morning of silver and gold.
