The sky's a raven marching
Band black blizzard blowing across the land Come darling take my hand I'm whiskey poured into the sand Star blossoms bloom the night Falling now burning fire bright Come darling take my hand I'm whiskey poured into the sand The silver tracks lie long and straight Perfect means for my escape Come darling take my hand I'm whiskey poured into the sand |

Oh, the summertime is coming
And the leaves are sweetly turning And the wild mountain thyme Blooms across the purple heather Will you go, lassie, go? If you will not go with me I will surely find another To pull wild mountain thyme All across the purple heather Will you go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All across the purple heather Will you go, lassie, go? And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All across the purple heather Will you go, lassie, go? |

Woke up this morning with light in my eyes
And then realized it was still dark outside It was a light coming down from the sky I don't know who or why Must be those strangers that come every night Those saucer shaped lights put people uptight Leave blue green footprints that glow in the dark I hope they get home all right Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along I won't do anything wrong Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along for a ride Woke up this morning, I was feeling quite weird Had flies in my beard, my toothpaste was smeared Over my window, they'd written my name Said, So long, we'll see you again Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along I won't do anything wrong Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along for a ride Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along I won't do anything wrong Hey, Mr. Spaceman Won't you please take me along for a ride |

I see you
Under there behind your hair Everywhere, I see you I see you Turned on eyes can't tell lies Empathise, I see you Warm sliding sun through the cave of your hair Wind washing fields kind of space living there I see you I know you Met before, seventh floor First world war, I know you Who lives there? Tell old fair I'm aware That she cares, who lives there? Green specks bright spiralling out in the sky Catch my mind, turn my head, have to look, don't know why Who lives there? We thought how For a while they just smile Just a silent thought I see you Sun is there behind your hair Everywhere, I see you I see you |

I don't know who you think you are
I don't know what you're doing here I don't know what's going on here I don't know how it's supposed to be I, I don't have the vaguest notion Whose it is or what it's all for I don't know, I'm not cryin' Laughin' mostly as you can see |

I come and stand at every door
But no one hears my silent tread I knock and yet remain unseen For I am dead, for I am dead I'm only seven although I died In Hiroshima long ago I'm seven now as I was then When children die they do not grow My hair was scorched by swirling flame My eyes grew dim my eyes grew blind Death came and turned my bones to dust And that was scattered by the wind I need no fruit I need no rice I need no sweets nor even bread I ask for nothing for myself For I am dead, for I am dead All that I ask for is for peace You fight today, you fight today So that the children of this world May live and grow and laugh and play |

Eight miles high
And when you touch down You'll find that it's stranger than known Signs in the street That say where you're going Are somewhere just being their own Nowhere is There warmth to be found Among those afraid of losing their ground Rain-gray town Known for its sound In places, small faces unbound Round the squares Huddled in storms Some laughing, some just shapeless forms Sidewalk scenes And black limousines Some living, some standing alone |

Fair young maid all in her garden
Strange young man came riding by Saying, "Fair young maid, will you marry me?" This then, sir, was her reply "Oh, no, kind sir, I cannot marry thee For I've a love who sails the deep salt sea Though he's been gone these seven years Still no man shall marry me" "What if he's died, all in some battle slain? Or if he's drownded in the deep salt sea? What if he's found some other love He and his love both married be?" "If he's found some other love He and his new love both married be I wish them health and happiness Where they now dwell far across the sea" He picked her up all in his arms And kisses gave her one, two, and three Saying, "Weep no more, my own true love I am your long-lost John Riley" Saying, "Weep no more, my own true love For I'm your long-lost John Riley" |

You say she can't change that, it's the way you've always done it She don't care about that, she thinks you've just begun it Why? Why? You say it's a dead old world, dull and unforgiving I don't know where you live, but you're not living Why? Why? Keep sayin' no to her since she was a baby Keep sayin' no to her, not even maybe Why? Why? |
