WISHBONE ASH - Lady Jay lyrics

rate me

Hear me when I cry

Listen to my song

The jaymy lovely lady

To the earth she did belong.

I, a country Sir

Lost her from my life

But the manor lady's bright young son

Can take her for his wife.

Under the forest branches

She came to me

Until the day she cried aloud

A father I should be.

That was the last time that we met

I never saw her again

For she took her life on princeton wharf

To save my worthy name.

She found death's open arms

And lay in them in grace

I watched as icy fingers

Clawed her lovely face.

Now I stumble through the mist

To where they laid her in the grave

And maybe I'll remember

The flowers for my days.

Far beyond the sand

I will take your hand

The spirit of our love will live forever.

Far beyond the clouds

We will laugh aloud

The spirit of our love will live again.
