There's a lady by the water There's a lady by the well And a tree grows in the meadow In the place her tears fell But the lady was a dreamer She dreamed her days away Sitting by the water Dreaming of another day And she dreamed of silks and taffetas Fine lace and cotton lawn Of candlewicks and covers With embroidery adorned Of rich and lavish banquets In the castle of her king Showing her friends her sapphires And her vases of the Ming And she'd walk on magic carpets Till the deep blue darkened sky Turned to crimson red and orange As the eastern morn drew nigh And she'd wander in the markets Buying spices and good wine Throwing silver to the beggars and Visiting religious shrines But the dreams they had no substance Just like shadows in the rain They vanish when the sun goes All the dreaming was in vain For the lady was a peasant girl Her food was bowls of corn While the lords and the ladies supped their wine She wished she wasn't born
