One Last Cold Kiss

	Am	G
Two	island swans, mated for	life,

	Am	G	Am
And	his faithful heart would not con	sider any other	wife.

	G
For three years peaceful joy midst the rushes of the	pond,

Am	G	Am
Proud and gentle was the loving of the	last two island	swans.

Their love was like a circle, no beginning and no end,
With his lady by his side a treasure and best friend.
The pond was all so peaceful in the rising of the sun,
Young and free at the island breeze their life had just begun.

'Til a dread day in November when the searing cold did start,
Stalked the hunter with his bow and put an arrow through her heart.
Husband come to my side let your feathers warm my pain,
For I feel I will not spend another day with you again.

	C	G	Am
And the	cold	winds	blow,

	C	G	Em
He was	brave but	he's laid	low.

	C	G	Em
By her	body in the	isle of	mist,

	C	D	E	G	A	C	D	Am
I	saw	him	give her one last	cold	kiss, one	last	cold	kiss.

Of swans the people talk of only one in this days tide,
Through they brought him twenty ladies he would take no other bride.
They say he will not move from the place where she did fall,
Once so proud he's beaten now and he will not rise at all.
