LIKE THE SNOW written by Sydney Carter (Copyright controlled) Tell me where did Helen go This is where she had her dwelling She has vanished like the snow Where there is no way of telling This is where she had her dwelling All the while they come and they go Where there is no way of telling She has vanished like the snow What became of Heloise Abelard he was her lover Once they lived in Saint-Denis Where they're gone I can't discover Abelard he was her lover All the while they come and they go Where they've gone I can't discover They have vanished like the snow Joan came riding from the rain Everybody knows the story England burnt her in the rain Theirs the shame and hers the glory Everybody knows the story All the while they come and they go England's shame and France's glory When she vanished like the snow This is from the jacket notes on Solas's album, "Sunny Spells and Scattered Showers." I hope the fact that it is copyrighted material doesn't upset anyone...
