[00:00.00]90听音乐网 www.90T8.com  [00:12.72]I went down to the hiring fair for to sell my labour [00:18.84]And I noticed a maid in the very next row and I hoped [00:22.77]She'd be my neighbour [00:23.64]Imagine then my delight when the farmer picked us both [00:30.85]I spoke not a word in the cart to the farm  but my [00:36.07]Heart beat in my throat [00:43.56]My lodging was dry and my master fair and I gave him [00:47.23]Full measure [00:49.48]But my envy grew like the corn in the field for in his [00:53.45]House was my treasure [00:55.95]And I'd watch her carry water  or drive cows from the [00:59.87]Byre [01:01.66]And the heat from the sun made the corn grow strong and [01:06.28]With it my desire [01:20.50]Well I'd see her in my dreaming and in my dreams caress [01:26.49]Her eyes  her lips and her dark brown hair  the curves [01:30.48]Beneath her dress [01:32.24]But harvest time it came at last  so heavy was the task [01:38.66]That the women and the men worked side by side and I [01:43.65]Had her near at last [01:50.81]And I swung harder with my scythe  few words between us [02:01.82]Passed [02:02.01]And I cursed my tongue-tied youthfulness and I hoped [02:06.82]That she'd hear my heart [02:09.38]When all was safely gathered in and we sat down to rest [02:15.49]My trembling fingers touched her arm  and she placed [02:46.44]Them on her breast [02:47.50]And then she turned to me as the sun went down and all [02:50.62]My senses reeled [02:52.18]As we lay there on the scented ground and the moon rose [02:55.92]Over the field [04:12.04]She was safely gathered in my arms when from the barn [04:18.10]Drifted the sound of a violin and we hurried back to [04:22.52]The farm [04:22.84]And all were dancing in the lantern light and music [04:28.23]Filled the air [04:30.53]And I thanked my stars for the harvest moon and the [04:35.39]Girl from the hiring fair
