The Amazing Blondel


(Chorus:) 
Here's to my acquaintance, and companion 
Lift your glass 
I love you, and leave you 
I do, give you, all my best 
Here's to lovely lasses 
Who by now are sleeping sound 
We miss you, and kiss you, 
We will, until we can no longer hope 

And I would spread the softest ground, 
For you to walk around, 
If I could be your right hand, 
I'd bless the seed that I would sow, 
And hope that it would grow 
Into a sight to hold you 

(Chorus) 

And we could have the richest thing 
To make your songbird sing 
A tale to haunt the evening. 
Then I would give you every note 
Of every song I wrote 
For them to ring forever 

(Chorus)
