Big Country - Harvest Home lyrics

rate me

Who saw the fences falling

Who broke the ploughman's bread

Who heard the winter calling

Who wore the tailor's thread

How many sheaves were counted

How did the carriage shine

How many thoughts were doubted

How did the landlord dine

Just as you sow you shall reap

Who led the mayday feasting

Who saw the harvest home

Who left the future wasting

Who watched the families go

See where the bowls are empty

See where the arms reach

See where the butter melted

See where the altars creak

Where were the days of promise

Where were the gifts divine

Where were the heroes honest

Where was the summer wine

Watch how the waves must shatter

Watch how the shore divides

Watch how the nets will tatter

Watch Canute and his bride
