Lyrics
The ferryman brought me with mind open, dreaming We cut the depths with laughter Stayed with my youth that God's tooth cut when weaning Now and ever after The will of the void is to shape and name forms Our dance was never done then I remember you well from before you were born My chance was never won then I burnt the sports pages as I already knew the score Put faith in the fire forever and evermore Your colors of autumn, you're burnished with gold there And standing in the rhythm This circle of trees, and the full wish we told there Truthful as a prism I looked at the mystery and all she evoked My patron saint stood near her But the mystery walked, and the mystery spoke My saint said, “Never fear her.” Now Mab is my queen Oh, and Mab is my chief Mab is my root now And strong trunk, and branch to the leaf The circle remains and still from its past Now waiting, now singing, now flying half mast She is, and she's whole Oh, I'll love, love again I'll know my song well, each dying refrain Each cadence, and twist well observed in its harmony Silence come clean, pull stillness for our lady Gypsy hymn sing me slow And tenderly bear me on your west wind blow Your gypsy hymn let me flow And sing me again before you got to go Sing me again before you got to go
