Subject: Lyr Add: COPPER AND MAY (Eric Payne) From: Commander Crabbe Date: 10 Dec 10 - 08:20 PM COPPER AND MAY (Eric Payne) When times were much harder and these limbs were strong I cared for my horses and sang them my song I would talk through our duties to cart and to plough How I miss, how I wish I could talk to them now When I could see clearly I often could tell By the birds in the sky, how the weather would swell By the feel of the share as it turned back the clay Knowing May and old Copper would plough well that day Chorus How I miss, how I wish I could talk to them now With a song and a whistle we'd get through somehow How I miss, how I wish I could talk to them now When I could hear clearly I often would slow For those still quiet moments that nature bestows And I'd whisper as horse breath out over the frost Come now me beauties they'll think we be lost When my mind was more agile I'd colour my dreams But these images now count for little it seems What I once understood is no longer the way And few understand not like Copper and May As I hold this old curry comb tight in my hand I so easily dream of my days on the land And if heaven's a paradise Lord hear my prayer That my dear May and Copper would plough with me there On the album "Through Mists of Time" by Eric payne |
