The Willis Clan - Lottie Lies Among The Flowers lyrics

Lottie lies among the flowers Gazing at the clouds above Spying castles, walls and towers Dreaming quiet thoughts of love Paddy sails upon the ocean For to make his fortune there In the hope of soon returning To his waiting lady fair Refrain She dreams, she wanders He seems so far away She waits, she ponders Thinking of the day Lottie watches from the windows Lottie leans upon the door Ever roaming through the meadows Ever walking down the shore Many years of silent sorrow Many young men come and gone Lottie lies alone in winter Just a shadow pale and drawn Torn and tattered, wind and weathered Comes a vessel to the bay Bringing home a loyal sailor Shrouded in a cloth of gray Refrain She dreams, she wanders He seems so far away She waits, she ponders Thinking of the day Lottie lies among the flowers Growing in the ground above Satisfied to spend the hours Sleeping quiet with her love Lottie lies among the flowers Sleeping quiet with her love
