The Melody Book

She sews little hearts
And bakes a gingerboy
I carry her heart
And make her wooden toys
And castles with kings
And a flower for my princess and me

And a melody for you, my love
Melody for you, my only love

She spins golden hay
And makes a golden wand
I sing secret songs
That only she can hear
And she makes me long for the olden days
That long since have gone

And a melody for you, my love
Melody for you, my only love

Oh, there are no words for how I feel
Nothing can keep my thoughts from you
