Gypsy

Through fate and love our paths crossed
I remember under the moolit sky
Our eyes spoke over the river no words
Branded my heart to this day

The water between us your mother carried you away
I ran back to the caravan and headed East they say
And now back westward today
If she’s gone off to rest
May peace shine it’s light all her days

We stopped a while to breathe the air
Play a tune
Wash our clothes

Your home sat still like a rock by the river
Animals at your command
I left my gloves of leather
For you to find in the night
