He Moved Through the Fair (with Sinéad O'Connor)

Lyrics

My own love said to me
 "My mother won't mind.
 And my daughters won't slight you
 For your lack of kind".
 He went away from me
 And this he did say
 "It will not be long, Love,
 Till our wedding day"
 He went away from me
 And he moved through the fair
 And slowly I watched him
 Move here and move there
 He went his way homeward
 With one star awake
 As this swan in the evening
 Moves over the lake
 I dreamed last night
 That my own love came in
 He came in so sweetly
 His feet made no din
 He came close beside me
 And this he did say
 "It will not be long Love
 Till our wedding day"
 It will not be long love
 Long love
 Long love
 Love
