2nd verse : She rode through the night till she came to the light Of a humble man's home in the wood He brought her inside, by the firelight she died And he buried her gently and good Oh, the morning was bright, all the world snow white But when he came to the place where she lay His field was ablaze with flowers on the grave Of the girl with April in her eyes Repeat chorus:
