Jacob Fleet |
| My name is Jacob Fleet |
| I feel the solid world |
| Revolve beneath my feet |
| I stride over plains |
| Through the copse |
| And through the glade… |
| I pace through the day |
| And a voice tells me |
| 'Never stop, never stay |
| Don’t let your shadow fade' |
| I scale the steeple streets |
| All empty but for song |
| Wood-smoke and Sabbathe meat |
| I pace down the lanes |
| If I stop my shadow fades… |
| I walk and I pray |
| And the wind tells me |
| 'Oh come back home again' |
| And the hedges began to hum |
| 'Never stop, never stay |
| Don’t let your shadow fade.' |
| My name is Jacob Fleet |
| I walk the golden mist |
| Of Alabaster Street |
| My scant figure strays |
| Through the lost |
| Withe lilac lanes |
| Where heavens angels prey… |
| But I will not stop or stay |
| I rage into the day |
| And the wind tells me |
| 'Oh come back home again' |
| And the hedges began to hum |
| 'Never stop, never stay |
| Don’t let your shadow fade.' |
| I saw a girl standing by a pail |
| I heard the tell-tale wind |
| In the windmill sail |
