Johnny Flynn - The Lady Is Risen lyrics

rate me

She loves falling true

As a fighting B quest

And the children she bore

Loved this truly too much

Calloused pride come to die

In our hands as we touch

And so soften me now let me

Take as it’s given

For the wind's started up

And the lady is risen

Is it snowing in London

And warm in your bed

Have I nothing to give you

I'm cold in your head

But you're burning in mine

Come to rest off the train

In the silence you've gone

And the train comes again

It’s been years since I saw you

I've learned how to live

And the love’s back in swing

And the lady is risen

Tell me where have the saints gone

Oh where is the pull

Are they flourished in times

That were guarded with wool

You know limbless they marched

Till they fell off the map.

Are you sick of them falling

Like crumbs on your lap?

You once told me that

This isn't all that there is

And the band started up

And the lady is risen.

You know life isn't always

Like the end of your novels

All things might wind up

But they always unravel

And I’ll watch you with eyes

That can see, I can see

That you're too good

Pulling that wool over me

And I’ll fight but there’s

Nothing here I find to resist

And the wind’s started up

And the lady is risen
