Strawbs - A Glimpse Of Heaven lyrics

rate me

The hillside was a patchwork quilt<br />

Neatly stitched with tidy hedge<br />

And crumbling grey stone wall<br />

The trees were bare, but Spring was near<br />

To conjure up its endless strings<br />

Of green magic handkerchieves<br />

<br />

Could you only see what I've seen<br />

You would surely know what I mean<br />

I think I must have caught a glimpse of heaven.<br />

<br />

A string of diamonds formed a stream<br />

That tumbled down the daunting cliff<br />

To sparkle bright on the beach.<br />

<br />

New born lambs that sweetly played<br />

Speckled eggs all newly laid<br />

But for you I would have stayed<br />

I think I must have caught a glimpse of heaven.
