Shawn Phillips - Withered Roses lyrics
Your rating:
Withered roses were around me Now the winter's come and gone And I can feel the clarity drifting The haziness of Spring song Mine eyes seek out And yet with futile try Can find no line of distinction out there Between the sea and sky Scattered scarlet specks announce their arrival On a distant mountain side In carnadine fields of crystalline fragrance And in the solitude there abide Build a flaming fire 'till coals are asleeping Trouble not your facets when you will begin to weeping Remember now the earth from a fish to a fawn And rest not in the shimmering shimmering dawn
