The Snows, They Melt The Soonest
The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to singAnd the corn it ripens fastest as the frosts are settling inAnd when a young man tells me that my face he'll soon forgetBefore we part I'll wage a bet he'll be fain to follow it yetThe snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to singAnd the swallow flies without a thought as long as it is springWhen springtime goes and winter blows, my lad, and you'll be fainWith all your pride to follow me across the stormy mainThe snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to singAnd the bee that flew in summertime in winter it will not stingI've seen a woman's anger melt between the night and mornIt's surely not a harder thing to melt a woman's scornSo never bid me farewell for no farewell I'll receiveYou will lie with me, my love, and kiss and take your leaveAnd I'll wait here 'til the woodcock calls and the marten takes its wingFor the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
