Sylvia The Fair - Ed McCurdy[00:00:00]
Sylvia the fair[00:00:01]
In the age of sixteen[00:00:03]
Felt an innocent warmth as she lay on the green[00:00:05]
She had heard of a pleasure[00:00:09]
And something she guessed[00:00:11]
By the towsing and tumbling and touching her breast[00:00:13]
She saw the men eager[00:00:17]
But was at a loss[00:00:19]
What they meant by their sighing and kissing so close[00:00:21]
By their praying and whining[00:00:25]
And clasping and twining[00:00:26]
And panting and wishing[00:00:27]
And sighing and kissing[00:00:28]
And sighing and kissing so close[00:00:30]
Ah she cried[00:00:34]
Ah for a languishing maid[00:00:35]
In a country of Christians to die without aid[00:00:38]
Not a whig or a tory[00:00:42]
Or trimmer at least[00:00:44]
Or a Protestant parson or catholic priest[00:00:46]
To instruct a young virgin that is at a loss[00:00:49]
What they meant by their sighing and kissing so close[00:00:53]
By their praying and whining[00:00:57]
And clasping and twining[00:00:59]
And panting and wishing[00:00:59]
And sighing and kissing[00:01:00]
And sighing and kissing so close[00:01:02]
Cupid in shape of a swain did appear[00:01:07]
He saw the sad wound[00:01:11]
And in pity drew near[00:01:13]
Then showed her his arrow[00:01:15]
And bid her not fear[00:01:17]
For the pain was no more than a maiden may bear[00:01:19]
When the balm was infused[00:01:22]
She was not at a loss[00:01:25]
What they meant by their sighing and kissing so close[00:01:28]
By their praying and whining[00:01:32]
And clasping and twining[00:01:34]
And panting and wishing[00:01:34]
And sighing and kissing[00:01:35]
And sighing and kissing so close[00:01:38]
