So you say but words I do not hear Nor do I pretend to know what idle gossip near The hare it races fast you can ignore But little deer she hides so frozen in her fear The moon a friend to shine the way But also lends a hand to shadows dancing in your way Just stay so quiet still don't sleep the night Then morning sun will brighten warm you through Take the little path now down the lane Slowly heal and drown out all the rain Play a little song inside your head And don't be long Until you catch your death The owl is still but watches over head And hare he knows your strength As tested thread
