How Sweet I Roamed

Lyrics: William Blake/Ed Sanders Music: claire rousay/Jeff Tweedy How sweet I roamed from field to field Tasted all the summer's pride Till I, the prince of love, beheld Who in the sunny beams did glide He showed me lilies for my hair And blushing roses for my brow He led me through his garden's fair Where all his golden pleasures grow With sweet May dews, my wings were wet And Phoebus fired my vocal rage He caught me in his silken net And shut me in his golden cage He loves to sit and hear me sing Then, laughing, sports and plays with me Then stretches out my golden wing And mocks my loss of liberty
