Wappenbury Woods
Through Wappenbury Woods we walked,
My love, my love and I
Through canopies so dense at times
We could not see the sky.
Through Wappenbury Woods we talked,
We talked, my love and I
Of trivia and sweet romance
To mellow out the sigh.
Through Wappenbury woods we sought,
My love, my love and I
For a place to become special
When from the world we fly.
At Wappenbury woods we gazed,
We gazed, my love and I
Across the fields of golden wheat
To where land touches sky.
'Til from Wappenbury Woods we drove,
My love, my love and I
To carry on the tasks ahead,
If not to succeed, at least to try.

Synopsis
A rather basic ballad - not traditional in the sense of a set chorus - but quite melodic, I think and with a firm structure and rhyme scheme and repetitive phrases which I think defines it as a ballad.
