She never laughed at much i have heard
But her smile filled the air
Giggling only at the Butterfly and Bird
And for the Bee, a heartfelt prayer;
She never romanced much in her life, i have been told
The Amherst Moon divulged the news
Her soul wrapped 'round the yellow-gold
While the galaxy was her muse;
The Northern Lights they beckoned her
Away from sod and tree
And took her heart in tender grasp
With a promise of Eternity;

The Amherst moon divulged the news
Her soul wrapped 'round the yellow-gold of the moon
The galaxy her muse
The Northern Lights they beckoned her
Away from sod and tree
And took her heart in a tender grasp
And filled it with promise of Eternity

She n'er romanced in her life
I've been told
The Amherst moon divulged the news
Her soul wrapped 'round the yellow gold
The Galaxy 'twas her Muse
The 'Northern Lights' they beckoned
Her away from sod and the Bee
And took her heart in tender grasp
And filled it: 'with promise of eternity'
