The Loving Time — текст песни (Mary Black)

It reads like a fairytale

And thats what it was

Young man in his prime

Young girl from the cross

The most perfect of strangers

And then the night closed in

And the holy ground took care of everything



Now she was a fine one

And he was a handsome man

One look was enough

And away they ran

They spend many happy hours

And then the night closed in

And the holy ground took care of everything



Oh whats the use in complaining

In for a penny in for a pound

I remember the loving time

And nothing else really counts



And I recall the promise they made

With a faith I can but admire

That shed be the one he adored

And hed be her hearts desire



It didnt come true in the end

They went their separate ways

He couldnt change what he was

She wasnt ready to wait

They couldnt live in the daylight

They let the night close in

And the holy ground took care of everything



I remember the loving time

And nothing else really counts
