The Gypsy




"Married for love, that was buried in fear, 
I stayed by his side, for my heart kept me near 
But hidden below the folds of my soul 
Was a wanderers heart, that never was whole

Give me green for my feet, and blue overhead 
My lover beside me, and hay for my bed 
There's a good God in Heaven, with a masterful plan 
I was born as a gypsy, and a gypsy I am

The stars up above, shine down to my eyes 
And I yearn for the earth that knows foreign skies 
Over the mountains, and over the sea 
My dear friend the west wind will soon come for me

Give me starlight to guide us, and strength for the storm 
My lover beside me, for he'll keep me warm 
There's a good God in Heaven with a masterful plan 
I was born as a gypsy, and a gypsy I am"
