SINGER: Gordon Lightfoot

SONG:Pussywillows, Cattails

Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses
rainbows in the woodland, water to my knees
shivering, quivering, the warm breath of spring
pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses
Catbirds and cornfields, daydreams together
riding on the roadside the dust gets in your eyes
reveling, disheveling, the summer nights can bring
pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses
Slanted rays and colored days, stark blue horizons
naked limbs and wheatbins, hazy afternoons
voicing, rejoicing, the wine cups do bring
pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses
Harsh nights and candlelights, woodfires a-blazin'
soft lips and fingertips resting in my soul
treasuring, remembering, the promise of spring
pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses
