The Breeze Whispered Your Name Lyrics - Isobel Campbell

This is a story 

That happened long ago 

I never thought love would ever find me 

Only infernal pain and woe 

Weeping and wailing 

'Saw gold and could not drink' 

[Incomprehensible] eased the sea of questions 

A sea of trouble brings 

And then the breeze whispered your name 

Long enough to hear it 

Trees whispered the same 

What I must do is follow you 

Into the water 

And all the way to sea 

Little fishes and eels and frogs dive after 

So careless and so free 

Must I abide now 

Against the glassy stream 

To wake or to sleep, remain forever 

The strangest lily seen 

And then the breeze whispered your name 

Long enough to hear it 

Trees whispered the same 

What I must do is follow you
