Lyrics Wolfgate - Emma Shapplin

Unkempt by the wind
By yon cherry tree
With pearl-spangled hair
I wait for Lee

My love is an oak
Whose languorous limbs
Explore my shadows
Dulled by the whirl

My vigil is low
My vigil is low
My vigil is low

Down by the old wolf gate
Grave eyes set wide
Clad in an astrakhan frock coat
For me Lee bide

My love has all charms
Penned in books wich quoth
Of Real Courtesy, Allegiance, solemn oath

My vigil is low
My vigil is low
My vigil is low

From the casement hark
The water trickle
Bleaching the skies
So earth can rekindle

Nestle unto me
Your breath do fade
Your warmth my voice remade
Unto your breast I sigh

Forever will I be night
Forever will I be night
Forever will I be night
Unkempt by the wind
By yon cherry tree
With pearl-spangled hair
I wait for Lee
