As I lay in the early sun Lyrics by Gerald Finzi

Oh, Fair to See

0

As I lay in the early sun
Stretched in the grass, I thought upon
My true love, my dear love
Who has my heart forever
Who is my happiness when we meet
My sorrow when we sever
She is all fire when I do burn
Gentle when I moody turn
Brave when I am sad and heavy
And all laughter when I am merry
And so I lay and dreamed and dreamed
And so the day wheeled on
While all the birds with thoughts like mine
Were singing to the sun
