The Goose Maiden
	The Goose Maiden- King/Evans/Wake The haunting tale of a girl imprisoned for years in a Welsh cottage by an old man The frosty earth and hazel hedge she views from bedroom cell Drainpipes bubbling in her ears fill up her prison hell Her friends, the birds, grow old and die as she counts the years away Whispering in the blackness and shouting in the grey Little 'Goose Maiden’ put on that smock for me Gazing at your beauty is where I want to be The door slams shut, the man is gone, the key is in his hand Alone again she wanders in her awful little land No bed tonight my little maid as you wait for break of day Whispering in the blackness and shouting in the grey Little 'GooseMaiden ' put on that smock for me Staring at your beauty is where I want to be With the dawn comes light and freshness through the windows of my cell The hissing logs and barking dogs with stranger tales to tell Of sounds beyond the wilderness but why will they not say And whisper in the blackness and shout in errant grey Little ‘Goose Maiden’ put on that smock for me Lusting at your beauty is where I want to be No escape for you young maid as the key is with the man Dream your dreams of freedom and live them if you can Eternity is never and never is no day Shouting in the blackness and whispering in the grey Little ‘Goose Maiden’ put on that smock for me Aching for your beauty is where I want to be For you are here for ever in the world where I am King The key is mine, the room is yours, this song is ours to sing
