Icy wind of night be gone, this is not your
domain In the sky a bird was heard to cry Misty morning
whisperings and gentle stirring sounds Be like the deathly
silence that lay all around
Hear the knock and hearten To
the barking of the dog fox Gone to ground See the splashing of
the kingfisher Flashing through the water And the river of
green is sliding unseen beneath the trees Laughing as it passes
through the endless summer Making for the sea
In the lazy
watermeadow I lay me down All around me golden sunflakes settle
on the ground Basking in the sunshine of a bygone
afternoon Bringing sounds of yesterday into the city room In
the lazy watermeadow I lay me down All around me golden sunflakes
covering the ground Basking in the sunshine of a bygone
afternoon Bringing sounds of yesterday into my city room.
The Narrow Way
Flowing in the path As it leads toward
the darkness in the north Weary stranger's faces show their
sympathy They've s een that home before
If you wanna stay
for a little bit Rest your aching limbs for a little
bit Before you can find his private room And you can't
delay Hear the nightbirds calling him To care and catch the
words to say Close by in the nightmare of your brain
Misty
swelling creatures crawling Hear the roar get louder in your
ears You know the volume as you're on the force Behind can't
conquer all your fears
All your birds aren't really
listening Tell them there is life with every morning Perhaps
today you can when you answer me It's clear, it's all nights
warning
