O ladybird 
I have heard you wish to walk me through your garden 
I crave your pardon if I woke you with my thinking 
Ladybird 

O ladybird 
I have heard you wish to walk me through your meadow 
You'll spread no wings to fly in fright if I'm beside you 
Ladybird 

All through the winter time 
When wood was warm and splintered 
Time seemed longer than a goods train 
Now that spring is back again I'll ask your name 
Your name 

O ladybird 
I have heard you wish to walk across my pillow 
No weeping willow was ever as beautiful, sad as you are 
Ladybird 

And as you're walking past 
I'm laying on the grass and making chains of thought 
To snare you with my wit 
But bit by bit you fade to gone 
Gone 

All through the iron season 
Love was hanged and treason became 
Something of a parlour game 
Now sun is back in power I'll ask your name 
Your name 

O ladybird 
I have heard you have to run to tend your children 
No flood can drown nor fire blacken purest longing 
For ladybird 
Ladybird
