(Dave Swarbrick, Sandy Denny, Dave Pegg) |
|
There's no excuse for torture, that you ought to know |
|
Let it live, let it breathe, let it go |
|
Yonder stands a scarecrow, he's hollow in his robes |
|
Let it live, let it breathe, let it go |
|
chorus: |
|
The song was only in our time |
|
They'll call it long, long ago |
|
They'll say, "Ah well, it was their best" |
|
Let it go, let it go |
|
The master and the mistress a-trying hard to show |
|
Let it live, let it breathe, let it go |
|
Now there is not time for shame or tears on a window pane |
|
Let it live, let it breathe, let it go |
|
chorus |
|
Eyes were made to smile and water |
|
Tears were made to flow |
|
Let it live, let it breathe, let it go |
|
There's a game that would have bought you |
|
Were you ever set to throw |
|
Let it live, let it breathe, let it go |
|
