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
