Bitter Green |
Upon the Bitter Green she was |
The hills above the town |
Echoed to the footsteps |
As soft as heather down |
Waiting for her master |
To kiss away her tears |
Waiting through the years |
Bitter Green they called her |
Walking in the sun |
Loving everyone that she met |
Bitter Green they called her |
Waiting in the sun |
Waiting for someone to take her home |
Some say he was a sailor |
Who died away at sea |
Some say he was a prisoner |
Who never was set free |
Lost upon the ocean |
He died there in the mist |
Dreaming of the kiss |
Bitter Green they called her |
Walking in the sun |
Loving everyone that she met |
Bitter Green they called her |
Waiting in the sun |
Waiting for someone to take her home |
Musical Interlude |
But now, that Bitter Green is gone |
The hills have turned to rust |
There comes a weary stranger |
His tears fall in the dust |
Kneeling by the churchyard |
In the autumn mist |
Dreaming of the kiss |
Bitter Green they called her |
Walking in the sun |
Loving everyone that she met |
Bitter Green they called her |
Waiting in the sun |
Waiting for someone to take her home |
Bitter Green they called her |
Walking in the sun |
Loving everyone that she met |
Bitter Green they called her |
Waiting in the sun |
Waiting for someone… |
To take her home |
