Mother England

Mother England
 As mother england sang for me
 I'll sing this song for you
 It is always fair and from the heart
 And sweet as morning dew
 And sweet as morning dew
 My lover's words were gentle
 He is sweet and wise
 While we were stitching cobwebs
 We were mending clouds
 We were mending clouds
 I put words to the river
 It rained upon the roof
 It sang songs of lovers fast and
 Songs of lovers true
 Songs of lovers true
 And it's a fine and pleasant morning
 To take you to the fair
 Those songs are sung, the day is long
 And magic fills the air
 Magic fills the air
 But the flowers of love will fade away
 From green unto gold
 Now you are taken and gone from me
 This house is full of gold
 This house is full of gold
