Lady Jay
Wishbone Ash
Letra

Álbum: There’s the Rub ( 1974)

Hear me when I cry
Listen to my song
The jay, my lovely lady
To the earth she did belong
I'm a country Sir
Lost her from my life
But the manor lady's bright young son
Couldn?t take her for his wife
Under the forest branches
She came to me
Until the day she cried aloud
A father I should be
That was the last time that we met
I never saw her again
For she took her life on Princeton wharf
To save my worthy name
She found death's open arms
And lay in them in grace
I watched as icy fingers
Clawed her lovely face
Now I stumble through the mist
To where they laid her in the grave
And daily I'll remember
With flowers for my Jay
Far beyond the sand
I will take your hand
The spirit of our love will live forever
Far beyond the clouds
We will laugh aloud
The spirit of our love will live again
