Folk Tales
A storytelling folk song by Cornelis Vreeswijk, with poetic Swedish lyrics.
Folk tales, whispered in the wind
Tales begin
Guitar strums, voices low
Folk tales, flow
Chorus
Folk tales, carry the song
All along
Singer's heart, stories told
Folk tales, old
From the streets to the hall
Folk tales, call
In the melody, find the truth
Folk tales, youth
Chorus
Folk tales, carry the song
All along
Singer's heart, stories told
Folk tales, old
Bridge
When the tale ends with a sigh
Folk tales, high
In the folk, live the dream
Folk tales, stream
Outro
Folk tales, eternal rhyme
Time
