"Isle In The Water" lyrics

Shy one, dear one, keeper of my heart
She moves in the pantry quietly apart
There she pours the flour
There she kneads the dough
To an isle in the water with her I would go

Shy one, dear one, keeper of my heart
She moves in the parlor quietly apart
She stands against the window
All in the fire glow
To an isle in the water with her I would go

Shy one, dear one, keeper of my heart
She moves in the chamber quietly apart
And there she smoothes the linen
And fluffs the pillows so
To an isle in the water with her I would go

But I cannot sail for my boat has holes
So I rumple her pillow and I stir the coals
And in the parlor I guess she knows
To an isle in the water with her I would go
