lirik lagu eric william barnum - the lady in the water

alas! the moon should ever beam
to show what man should never see! ~~
i saw a maiden on a stream
and fair was she!

i staid a while, to see her throw
her tresses back, that all beset
the fair horizon of her brow
with clouds of jet

i staid a little while to view
her cheek, that wore in place of red
the bloom of water, tender blue
daintily spread

i staid to watch, a little sp~ce
her parted lips if she would sing
the waters closed above her face
with many a ring

and still i staid a little more;
alas! she never comes again!
i throw my flowers from the shore
and watch in vain

i know my life will fade away
i know that i must vainly pine;
for i am made of mortal clay
but she’s divine!
