Thinking of you while out for a ramble Down by a cold frosty stream Set down on a bed of hemlocks and primroses And gently I fell into a dream
I dreamed I saw a pretty fair maiden Such beauty I'd never saw before Her dress was bound round with hemlocks and primroses So green was the mantel she wore
Her hair was of a dark brown color Her teeth was as ivory so white Her eyes they shined like sparking diamonds Or stars than shine on a cold frosty night
I drew her near then I awakened With two empty arms and you on my mind Heaven seemed so near while I was dreaming It hurts to know you left me behind
