PINK FLOYD - Grantchester Meadows lyrics

rate me

Icy wind of night, be gome.<br>This is not your domain.<br>In the sky a bird was heard to cry.<br>Misty morning whisperings and gentle stirring sounds<br>Belied a deathly silence that lay all around.<br>Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox gone to ground.<br>See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water.<br>And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees,<br>Laughing as it passes through the endless summer making for the sea.<br>In the lazy water meadow<br>I lay me down.<br>All around me,<br>Golden sunflakes settle on the ground,<br>Basking in the sunshine of a by gone afternoon,<br>Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room.<br>Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox gone to ground.<br>See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water.<br>And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees,<br>Laughing as it passes through the endless summer making for the sea.<br>In the lazy water meadow<br>I lay me down.<br>All around me,<br>Golden sunflakes covering the ground,<br>Basking in the sunshine of a by gone afternoon,<br>Bringing sounds of yesterday into my city room.<br>Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox gone to ground.<br>See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water.<br>And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees,<br>Laughing as it passes through the endless summer making for the sea.
