kate rusby - night lament lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i come to thee, oh earth
with my gifts for every flower
gem like dew i cast with mirth
with gentle calm and proud with power

[chorus]
on and on each day is done
on and on triumphant as each night is won

[verse 2]
i come with every star
a thousand voices hushed in tone
i whisper stories from afar
bathed in light i stand alone

[chorus]
on and on each day is done
on and on triumphant as each night is won

[verse 3]
i come from ancient kings
through sleeping leaves i bring the storm
with no remorse the tempest sings
through every tree and field and form
[chorus]
on and on each day is done
on and on triumphant as each night is won

[instrumental break]

[verse 4]
i come from moonlit sky
a song of peace to all who sleep
on silver wings i gently fly
a harbour safe from swirling deep

[chorus]
on and on each day is done
on and on triumphant as each night is won

[verse 5]
i come from far at sea
where dawning light it shadows me
in skimming waves i go with glee
the endless hunt it keeps me free

[chorus]
on and on each day is done
on and on chased by the sun
on and on triumphant as each night is won
