[Verse 1] He always was a rover who never settled down Freedom of the open road kept him rambling round Songs and storytelling were his stock and trade Happy as a lark was the jolly Roving Blade [Verse 2] And she was born a lady into high society At home among the gentry and raised most properly Beautiful and charming, the young men came to call None could take her fancy she refused them all [Chorus] Love is everywhere, elusive as the wind Blowing hot or cold, no one know whre it begins A stirring in the blood and th heart begins to sing Growing to a flower like a blossom in the spring [Verse 3] They met by chance on morning, twas on a market day They joined in conversation and the time, it whiled away Everything in common, be it a hundred worlds apart But Cupids always blind in matters of the heart [Chorus] Love is everywhere, elusive as the wind Blowing hot or cold, no one know where it begins A stirring in the blood and the heart begins to sing Growing to a flower like a blossom in the spring [Verse 4] Enchanted by each other, they walked along the strand As close as longlost lovers, strolling hand in hand Said he, I know this country, and could show you all its charms Said she, Ill gladly go with you and nestle in your arms [Chorus] Love is everywhere, elusive as the wind Blowing hot or cold, no one know where it begins A stirring in the blood and the heart begins to sing Growing to a flower like a blossom in the spring [Instrumental] [Verse 5] The Lady and the Roving Blade answered Cupids call And found a lasting true love the most precious gift of all Arm in arm together, they followed true loves ways Two hearts joined as one, now, forever and a day [Chorus] Love is everywhere, elusive as the wind Blowing hot or cold, no one know where it begins A stirring in the blood and the heart begins to sing Growing to a flower like a blossom in the spring [Outro] A stirring in the blood and the heart begins to sing Growing to a flower like a blossom in the spring
