lyrics
He waits that night like any other
In secret meeting moonlit lovers
Each night they plan for married life
When he may hold her as his wife
But she must keep away for now
The distance seems like miles somehow
Oh how he longs to hold her tight
He waits and waits and waits this night
This task is hers alone to shoulder
Worst tragedy for any mother
To pile the earth upon her children
And to inter her husband with them
Such a cruel hand to be given
For she is cursed to keep on living
As those around her wilt and perish
She rues the life for they would cherish
This stone marks the boundary of our lives
Beyond it all that we have is time
We shrink in fear of a lurking death
One whispered on a final breath
No bars, no walls do keep us here
We stay out of duty, out of fear
Miasmic blight, a toxic æther
We live apart or die together

Thank you Rowan : Morrison. Ltd edition album arrived. The beautiful and personable packaging is matched by the beauty of the light and dark shades of music within. Open fire burning with wine on a winter's evening...fantastic. Jay
