talis kimberley - looking for jack lyrics

Loading...

i haven’t the measure of these people yet
but i’ve learnt to ignore all the comments i get –
it’s “who was that girl with the flaming red hair?”
as if i should tell them, as if i should care
i’m looking for someone – and i haven’t much time…
and if he doesn’t answer for all of my calling, he’s no friend of mine –

where are you now, jack-in-the-green
jack-in-the-green, where’ve you gone hiding?
you should have been here, i needed you here
i need you here now, shouldn’t have to go looking for you

oh we’re living in hiding, we’re living in fear
and i’m not at all certain we’ll be here next year
it’s me and one other, our backs to the wall
and if jack doesn’t answer, we’ve no hope at all
i was told as a youngster, “you can trust the green man,”
but my faith and my patience are running out fast, i don’t know if i can

and where are you now, jack-in-the-green, oh
jack-in-the-green, where’ve you gone hiding?
you should have been here, i needed you here
i need you here now, shouldn’t have to go looking for you

well there’s three acres left and the fences are down
we’ll soon be replaced by another part of this town
most of my seedlings are already gone
and they’ll come to take my tree as well before long;
but i mustn’t stop hoping, in the time i have left
whatever crime did we ever commit to deserve such a death?

and where are you now, jack-in-the-green, oh
jack-in-the-green, where’ve you gone hiding?
you should have been here, i needed you here
i need you here now, shouldn’t have to go looking

where are you now, jack-in-the-green
jack-in-the-green, where’ve you gone hiding?
you should have been here, i need you here
i need you now, shouldn’t have to go looking for you
jack-in-the-green…
jack-in-the-green!
