Tarry: A Wingfeather Song

A couple of weeks ago, Andrew was involved in a conference called Inkwell, hosted by our allies in imagination over at Story Warren. While there, he met a sweet young lady named Jaiden who sang him a song she'd written based on the story Podo tells his grandkids about meeting their grandmother. She gave us permission to post the lyrics here. Thanks, Jaiden! The song is called "Tarry."


I'll bring you a barrel of apple wine,When the pumpkins are ripening on the vine,I will be looking for you,And your bonnie eyes of blue.So tarry a while, tarry yetDon't give your love to anotherJust wait awhile, oh, wait yetSo that we may be togetherWhen my ship comes into dock,I'll give you a necklace with a golden lock,Won't you wait for me,For I have gifts for thee.So tarry awhile, tarry yetDon't give your love to anotherJust wait awhile, oh, wait yetSo that we may be together
