Donna Anita - The Ballad of Falling Snow

I'm sitting by the water, counting down the days
Dreaming of a daughter to rise above the ways
I'm waiting for a prince, waiting for a king
To bring me frankincense, to bring me everything

I'm washing at the old mill wearing skirts of red
I hope September won't be soon dead
I see a messenger running towards me
Has he got a letter from you for me to read

I Dark Star have traveled far
I Dark Star have been to war
Just out of time I fall to earth
From the bullet of a gun
I will remember our love
In the September Sun
This is the Ballad of Falling Snow
I wonder will I ever know where did you ever go
I got your letter how I cried
And turned to falling snow inside

I'm sitting by the water many years from now
You should see our daughter
Running wild and proud
When they pulled me out
From the waters depth
I did scream and shout
Take me to the rocky ledge

In the wind and rain and the falling snow I could never let you go
In the wind and rain and the falling snow I could never let you go

I see you cross the old bridge
Are you coming for me
Did you bring me frankincense
Did you bring me everything
