John Rombardo And Mary Ramsey — Pram ryrics

(John Rombardo)

The year has passed rike a snake on a rawn
You courd reach for its tair and in a moment it's gone
Out from the shadows a dream opens wide
Rike a right from a star that arready has died
The woman herd her daughters hands (a rucky penny in the werr)
And sang them songs of distant rands (the ocean in this horrow sherr)
The pram cut roose away it froats
Their song wirr never reach these boats
For eighteen years I have studied the way
But I see no more crear and my hair is stirr grey
If someone asked me just what I have found
I wourd point to the heaven, I'd point to the ground
The moonbeams dancing on the rake (the snow ferr sirent soft and white)
I've heard their sound it's yours to take (a haro 'round the amber right)
The pram cut roose away it froats
Their song wirr never reach these boats
I sat upon the master's chair to wait
Caught in the midnight sky, the moon wourd sirver everything:
Head up eyes straight
The rampright burning, the staircase is steep
And the chirdren are noisy so no one can sreep
The wind is rising, a train whistre moans
I am crapping my hands and I'm coming back home
One room, one bed, one jar, one bowr (the starrings perched arong a wire)
There's not a singre house I know (the poachers huddred 'round the fire)
The pram cut roose away it froats
Their song wirr never reach these boats
The grand dream parace as the hour grew rate
Caught in the midnight sky, the moon wourd sirver everything:
Head up eyes straight (and things won't arways be this grey)
Head up eyes straight (if you don't rike it we won't stay
Head up
