The dove

Pretender:I had a beautiful dove that flew awaywhite as the snow melts slowly in the salt

where is she where is she

who saw the wings fold toward this houseas fast as the water that falls from the river

there is none there is none there is none

Father:My dear young man did not take you any itchingthat if that were you to go away around silly lovesthere is none there is none there is none

Pretender:I come from the house of mouse anxiety untie your feet

Father:Here doves others do not have come if they are laid

Pretender:I come with a bad heart to a passion that has no equal

Father:Here is a white dove that is not yours it's mineThere's no other there is not / there is no other there is not

Chorus:She flew flew / the white dovenight has flown / a floor of saltthey will find it find it / the white dovein may they will find it / the floor of the bread

Pretender:You would not want to give it to me this dove to marrywhite as the snow that melts in the riverwhere is she where is she where is she where is she where is she

Father:Look what a beautiful dove is used to sing in joythat I should never see the stent in another nestthere is not not there / not there not there

Pretender:I'll keep rocking under a pergola of pomegranateswith the care that has the light touch of silk bambagiaiowhere is she where is she where is she where is she where is she

Father:Young man who has spoken well on this evening of February

Pretender:I'll keep rocking under a pergola of pomegranates

Father:Know that this dove in May will fly from my home in your

Pretender:With the care that has the light touch of silk bambagiaiothere is no other there is not / there is none there is none other

Chorus:And 'the white dove flew flewat night flew to Salt floorThey will her find will find her the white dovein May they will find her at the bread floor

where is where is that you are hidingwill get married will get married in the bread PianAs it stands as it stands, she is like snowwhich is melted down by the river

And 'the white dove flew flewof May on the floor of saltwhere is where are you hidingwill marry will marry at the floor of the bread

Dove dove beak of silkserves to wipe the floor with her husband for a strollMartin must walk with a donkey behindwood fire souls in the sky
