Yo La Tengo - Griselda lyrics

Album: Fakebook (1990)

Come won´t you walk with me Griselda,
wearing the dress that moonlight shines through.
I´m a sad & lonely boy ,
since your mother said I could not 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, & 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 until 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, & lead me to my Griselda.

Moonflower find upon the window,
give me a foothold for my finding.
I have got a row boat on the lake.
Fishing around & 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, & lead me to my Griselda.

I have got a jug of wine Griselda.
Why must you waste your time in sorrow?
Hold out your hand; have no fear.
If we are caught, I will 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, & 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, & lead me to my Griselda.
