Strawbs - Till The Sun Comes Shining Through lyrics

rate me

My love is as the rose<br />

As wild and free as I should wish to be<br />

Close guarded by the thorns<br />

That shield her from the hands that seek to touch.<br />

<br />

The hourglass sand that runs so free<br />

Is rock that failed to halt the waves of time<br />

My haven is the harbour bar<br />

Sheltering from the storm<br />

'Til the sun comes shining through, again.<br />

<br />

My love a primrose fair<br />

A gentle hedgerow flower in the spring<br />

If gathered in the dawn<br />

Come evening she will surely fade and die.<br />

<br />

My love is as a pearl<br />

A heart of stone that I can never own<br />

More precious that my life<br />

Thus meaning more than I can ever give.
