Okay, just dumping these here so I remember them hehe...had this song in my head all day and I've been going nuts trying to remember the words ;


Oh the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing
And the corn it ripens fastest when the frosts are setting in,
And when a young man tells me that my face he'll soon forget,
Before we part I'll wage a crown, he's fain to follow yet.

Oh the snow it melts the soonest when the wind begins to sing
And the swallow skims without a thought as long as it is Spring,
But when Spring goes and Winter grows, my loss and you'll be fain,
For all your pride you'd follow me across the stormy main.

Oh the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing,
The bee that flew when Summer shone, in Winter cannot sting,
I've seen a young man's anger melt between the night and morn
And it's surely not a harder thing to tame a young man's scorn.

Oh never say me farewell here, no farewell I'll receive,
For you shall take me to the stile, I'll kiss and take your leave,
But I'll stay here 'til the woodcock comes and the matler takes his wing
For the snow it melts the soonest when the winds begin to sing.
