White Dress - with Fairport Convention

Sandy Denny - with Fairport Convention

from the recording Rising For The Moon (1975)

Feel how the wind blows, December despair,
Bring me a ribbon to tie up my hair,
I'll be your bride, go where you go,
All of my life, you'll be my beau.
Kiss me and I might
Put on a white dress,
If you'll take me dancing tonight.

The night's in your face, sky's in your eyes,
The day's in my arms when you're by my side,
Whenever you're weary I'll sing you a song,
Whenever you're lonely I'll show you you're wrong.
Kiss me and I might
Put on a white dress,
If you'll take me dancing tonight.

Come from the window, let's climb the stairs,
All of my sorrows are none of your cares,
While life is in us, let's love all we can.
I'll be your woman, you'll be my man.
Kiss me and I might
Put on a white dress,
If you'll take me dancing tonight.
