Maislie Lacy

Maislie Lacy

Her name smooth like silk

Sat in the barn

Collecting milk

Her brown hair woven upon her head

Her lips bold, the shade of dark red

Her eyes are like the suns heat in winter

Making all the snow soft

Oh, Maislie Lacy

She could stop a bull from charging off

She carries that bucket of milk up the hill

The same one every day

I watch her from the pastures, the pastures wide field

Hoping maybe someday

Maislie Lacy, oh how do you know

Exactly how to sew my heart together

Maislie Lacy, oh

If only you could see what you made of me

If only we weren’t separated forever

My love reins from a distance

Like a lockets quiet promise

Yet mine is forever sealed

Oh, Maislie Lacy

Have you ever seen me

Sneaking out to the barn?

Well it’s you I’m coming to see

Despite all odds I’d follow you

To the cursed land under

I’d sit under the trees

When the night is full of thunder

Maislie Lacy, oh how do you know

Exactly how to pull me in tow

Maislie Lacy, oh

Maybe someday you will know

How to love me as I show
