WALKING IN THE MIST
scroll down then up for midi to play
She loved to wander in the mist at night
Where'er the road might lead...
Not afraid of anything at all
Found nothing she must heed
Loved to watch the night birds
And hear their screaching songs
Feeling leaves beneath her feet
As she wandered on along...
How often had she done this
Oh my! since but a little child
Use to worry Mom and Dad
Afraid she'd be lost in the wild
Nothing to her ever seemed wild
She saw but beauty in the night
Sometimes it was very dark
Sometimes she walked in moonlight
Almost the same path she took
Each time that she would go
Always wandered by the creek
To hear the water's flow...
In summer she would take off shoes
Put feet right into water sweet
She loved the cool, cool waters
As she splashed her tiny feet
Tonight somehow was different
She thought she'd lost her way
Didn't really worry her ...
She'd wait for the coming day
Never was she found again
They searched in dark and light
Somehow she wasn't anywhere
Seems she vanished among the night
