Silly Wizard Lyrics
Lover's Heart

She was in the flowery garden when first she
caught my eye And I just a marching soldier she
smiled as I passed by The flowers she held were
fresh and fair, her lips were full and red And as
I passed that shady bower, these words to me she
said

"Last night we spoke of love, now we're forced to
part You leave to the sound of a marching drum and
the beat of a lovers heart She was by the shore in
the evening when next I saw my dear Running

making fire of her auburn hair My young heart
danced at her parting words that hung in the
evening air

She was on the Strand next morning when orders
came to sail And as we slipped our ropes away I
watched her from the rail She threw me a rose,
which fell between us, and floated on the Bay And
as our ship pulled from the shore, I heard her call
and say

Now the soldier's life won't suit me, sweet music
is my trade For I'd rather melt the hardest heart
than pierce it with a blade Let the time be short
till I return to my home in the north of Skye And
the loving girl who stole my heart with these
words as I passed by
