Lyrics
Griselda
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Come won't you walk with me Griselda
Wearing the dress that moonlight shines through
I'm a sad and lonely boy
Since your mother said I couldn't see you
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
Oh lady moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda
Do you recall last night Griselda
Learning the lessons nature taught us
Watching the fish jump in the lake
It was lovely 'til your mother caught us
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
Oh lady moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda
These flower vines upon the window
Give me a foothold for my climbing
I've got a rowboat on the lake
Fish are out and all the stars are shining
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
Oh lady moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda
I've got a jug of wine Griselda
Why must you waste your time in sorrow
Hold out your hand, have no fear
If we're caught I'll marry you tomorrow
Slip into the wood in the dark of the night
Calling to the moon out yonder
Oh lady moon won't you shine a silver light
And lead me to my Griselda
