fairport convention - wizard of the worldly game lyrics
for seven years i’ve stood right here
and the flowers? don’t be? by day
all for the yarns that i was told
i spread my arms when they grew cold
and warded off the rain
the bigger the tree, the deeper the roots
the gr-ss that is trodden underfoot
give it time and it will surely rise again
i’m rocked by winds and am soaked by rains
and i bow and sometimes bend
until i fall and crush the forms
of a few small friends who stood through storms
and will surely rise again
the bigger the tree, the deeper the roots
the gr-ss that is trodden underfoot
give it time and it will surely rise again
it’s . . . dust, the derby’s just
we do . . . done
? wild to wind? and wise to pain
wizard of the worldly game
treason into trust
the bigger the tree, the deeper the roots
the gr-ss that is trodden underfoot
give it time and it will surely rise again
