luka bloom – raglan road lyrics
on raglan road of an autumn day
i saw her first and knew
that her dark hair would weave a snare
that i might one day rue
i saw the danger and i walked
along the enchanted way
and i said, let grief be a fallen leaf
at the dawning of the day
on grafton street in november
we tripped lightly along the ledge
of a deep ravine where can be seen
the true worth of p-ssion’s play
the queen of hearts still making tarts
and i not making hay
oh, i loved too much and by such by such
is happiness thrown away
i gave her gifts of the mind
i gave her the secret sign
that’s known to the artist who has known
the true god of sound and stone
and word and tint i did not stint
for i gave her poems to say
with her own name there and her own dark hair
like clouds over fields of may
on a quiet street where the old ghosts meet
i see her walking now
away from me so hurriedly
my reason must allow
that i had loved not as i should
a creature made of clay
when the angel woos the clay
he’ll lose his wings at the dawn of day
