|
I was living by the water |
|
Late July moon's early quarter |
|
Summer mornings, early dawnings |
|
Pay no heed to me, gave no warning |
|
Of their endless way |
|
Seatide flowing in the river |
|
Is all the music I would ever |
|
Have, a long, long day since I went away |
|
On the mountain there my song I'll sing |
|
When the wind plays in the raven's wing |
|
And I saw maudlin horses |
|
Dancing over the plains of the deadland marshes |
|
Down to the sea voices from the empty moor |
|
They call me past the stranger's door |
|
Because I keep no company I make no enemies |
|
On the lonely sands of the western strands |
|
It was there I made my way |
