The Clay Song
After the blossom has fallen from the trees
I kissed you in the morning I said I'd never leave
Not until the leaves have fallen to the ground
And the sweet taste of summer has slowed herself down

Remember me for I was so green

May we play and sing to you for a little while
So to let your life wind back to nourish the soul
You know that it's strange when we get this way
All of these things of the world can fade away

Our roots they grow deep into the clay

I heard the big clock ticking up upon the wall
But now it has melted and fallen to the floor
When it's all over and life's come to an end
I'll be praying I'll be waking up with you as my friends

Remember me for I was so green

Deep Down
The birds have all flown home
Full moon in the sky
Mothers with their babies
Have sleep in their eyes
Saddle up your horses
Fall in behind
You’re all good men
I’d trust you with my life
Like a tide this war has moved
Right up to our shore
Should have left here last spring
Way before the fall

(Chorus)

Kathleen I just want you to know
Kathleen I love you so
Long to see you in the morning light
Deep deep down I fear for my life

We rode through the brambles
Rode through the mist
Took our positions
On the edge of this cliff
We’ll stop them in the valley
‘Till the others come
Maybe by the first shot
They’ll turn and go on home
Turn and go on home

(Chorus)

How the hell did this happen
Cried a young man from behind
A pompous fool in power
With just money on his mind
Why don’t we all just head off
Become like roving tramps
But to leave my wife an children
Is more than one could ask
Cannons started firing
Smoke and blood and guts
I don’t give a damn about flags boys
All I care about is love

(Chorus)
