Yo La Tengo - Griselda

Come won't you walk with me Griselda
wearing the dress that moonlight shines through
I am a sad and lonely boy
since your mother said I couldn't see you

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

Do you recall last night Griselda
Learning the lessons nature taught us
Watching the fish up the lake
it was lovely till your mother caught us

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

Moonflower find upon the window
give me a foothold for my finding
I've got a row boat on the lake
Fishing around and all the sun was shining

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

I've got a jug of wine Griselda
Why must you waste your time in sorrow
Hold out your hand have no fear
If we're caught, I'll marry you tomorrow

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda
Come won't you walk with me Griselda
wearing the dress that moonlight shines through
I am a sad and lonely boy
since your mother said I couldn't see you

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

Do you recall last night Griselda
Learning the lessons nature taught us
Watching the fish up the lake
it was lovely till your mother caught us

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

Moonflower find upon the window
give me a foothold for my finding
I've got a row boat on the lake
Fishing around and all the sun was shining

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

I've got a jug of wine Griselda
Why must you waste your time in sorrow
Hold out your hand have no fear
If we're caught, I'll marry you tomorrow

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda

Slipping through the wood in the dark of the night
calling to the moon out yonder
O Lady Moon won't you shine a silver light, and lead me to my Griselda
