in my county

My lover walked
in my fair county tonight

The sky, though stormy shone
with light

His golden visage 
His youthful heart
guiding him
along the path
to my 
door

Singing
my name to bring me outside
to frolic 
in the stormy snow

And I went to meet my love,
answering his song with a
soft, lustful gaze

Neath slender branches
touched with snow,
my lover walked 
in my fair county 
tonight.
