MORE I CANNOT WISH YOU

ARVIDE:
Velvet I can wish you
For the color of your coat
And fortune smiling all along your way
But more I cannot wish you
Than to wish you find your love
You’re own true love this day
Dimensions I can wish you
Seven footmen all in red
And calling cards upon a silver tray
But more I cannot wish you
Than to wish you find your love
You’re own true love this day
Standing there
Gazing at you
Full of the bloom of youth
Standing there
Gazing at you
With the sheep side
And the liquorish tooth
Music I can wish you
Marry music while you’re young
And wisdom when your hair has turned to gray
But more I cannot wish you
Than to wish you find your love
You’re own true love this day
With the sheep side
And the liquorish tooth
And the strong arms to carry you
Away...
