lyrics

The summer of my triumph
ended in disaster
reminded me of seasons
long gone by
We took in the hay
and I drove the green tractor –
beating back the rain
that threatened from the sky

I went with dad out shooting
early in the morning
came across a shelter
but no-one was there….
Heard a foxes bark
that came without warning
for a moment I saw you
then noone was there

Love is as brief
as you on that morning
were you a mirage
or a figment of my mind?
The memory returns
to me without warning…
they took you from the
hanging branch
and left the trap behind

Did our romance
Have to end quite as violently?
Escaping from the chicken run
With a dog upon your heel
Run past the foxgloves
to where the water was
The scent of you returning
Across the ancient fields
