"Folk Song" from our opening set for Skydiggers.
Lyrics:
Are you coming through the valley?
Have you rested in its bed?
Are you tongue tied and sick of wanting?
Have you wandered all you can?
Do you know now the end of waiting
Is not far, now, you're almost there
You can rest, now, the final hour
There'll be food when you get there
Oh to rise, (oh to rise)
And oh to go (to go)
Through the current and the undertow
It won't hurt you
More than this
There's a time to go ahead like this
Oh the hoping held up
Oh the letting let in
Oh the quiet morning dew
The spring in winter's view
Oh the trying 'til it's true
Did you know the harvest soothes?
Oh the hoping 'til it's true
Did you know that it is through?
In the quiet, and in the calm
There's that feeling of pain now gone
Where what was tearing - and oh what tore -
Is put aside for hope once more
