The Raven |
My love is like a raven |
Black against a sky of grey |
With cold in your bones |
And the winter coming on |
And the smell of snow on the way |
The sun’s going down |
But you’re walking home |
The warmth will ease your pain |
Like a jet black raven overhead (sings: Like a jet black raven in the sky) |
My love is a bird of change |
My love is an autumn raven |
Above a field cut low |
And what she sees as she flies through the trees |
No man is going to know |
My love is a secret never told |
An omen to swear by |
Like a terrible raven overhead |
In the rolling autumn sky |
When the black night falls |
The raven calls |
And bathes me with her sweet breath |
And the rough grey blanket |
Weighs us down |
Into a sleep like death |
My love is an autumn raven |
Above a field cut low |
With the order of heaven pressing down |
And frost on the stubble below |
And the wisdom of the men and gods |
The folly of the day |
Is flying in the swift black raven |
In a sky of grey |
