She Moved Through The Fair Lyrics - Sinead Oconnor

My own love said to me, 

"My mother won't mind 

"And my father won't slight you 

"For your lack of kind" 

He went away from me 

And this he did say, 

"It will not be long love 

'Til our wedding day" 

He went away from me 

And he moved through the fair 

And slowly I watched him 

Move here and move there 

He went his way homeward 

With one star awake 

As a swan in the evening 

Moves over the lake. 

I dreamt last night 

That my own love came in 

He came in so sweetly 

His feet made no din
