Outside the City of York : Mayday morning

lyrics

Leave behind old tangled streets
Beyond the Roman stone wrought walls
Await the Minster's blessed peal
Far from the crowd this Mayday Morn

Hear the gentle waters song, through verdant shade it won't be long
Clutching stones of purest white, await the bell, the time for five

Cast them out,
To timeless calm
Flowing fluid dreams
I pray they will take form

Relive the past
Relieve the pain
Reveal the future bring
A present free from blame

They said that time heals everything, all will soon be well
They sing their song songs of transience, we fall under its spell
I've heard it said that Spring won't be long, but it's so hard to tell
And it feels to me it's all so far away
Staring at Waters Dark
