Young Man's Fancy Lyrics

(Chorus:) Here's to my acquaintance, and companion Lift your glass I love you, and leave you I do, give you, all my best Here's to lovely lasses Who by now are sleeping sound We miss you, and kiss you, We will, until we can no longer hope And I would spread the softest ground, For you to walk around, If I could be your right hand, I'd bless the seed that I would sow, And hope that it would grow Into a sight to hold you (Chorus) And we could have the richest thing To make your songbird sing A tale to haunt the evening. Then I would give you every note Of every song I wrote For them to ring forever (Chorus)
