The grass is long in the light my love
()
And ever go to light
()
When the hawk is high in the house for us
()
He guards all of the blue sky
()
When winter comes and the night s cold
() ()
I ll take your hand to hold
I dreamt I flew with the saints last night
I know them all by wing size
And up there it just doesn t count for naught
Whether you re clever or wise
When everyone is talking at the very same time
I can still hear your voice my dear
Janice yes the actor and Agnes the crow
Are two of the truest to fly
I know she is a stout heart
And though we had a full start
There s a promise and truth in his eye
() ()
And it s a stout heart that catches the rain
()
And it s a stout heart that feels the pain
() () ()
And it s a stout heart that loves again
() ()
And it s a stout heart x2
And everyone goes against the wind sometimes
When the shipping folk are strong
You said we were landlocked and stuck to the soil
Guess they never heard of us winning through
()
Let s gather us up to the heavens above
() ()
We can always come back my love
() () (barre chord)
We can always come back... My love
