All Our Days Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
We search for everything
Keeping what we would win
Orchids or tiny flowers
Wooden huts or ivory towers
Centuries or hours
Dark are the winter days
Holy in many ways
Vaults of time unshaken
Whilst as through them we are taken
Sleeping forests wake
Ice melts on the la
At The End Of The Day Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
Oh babe, you are the one I love
You are the one I'm thinking of
You know it's still a long, long way
But I'll be home at the end of the day
And I'll sing my songs just for you
I'll bring my love home to you
I can hardly wait to see your face again
But I'll be home a
Blackwaterside Lyrics
(Traditional)
One evening fair, I took the air
Down by Blackwaterside
'Twas in gazing all around me
That the Irish lad I spied
All through the first part of the night
We did laid, sport and play
And this young man arose, he gathered his clothes
Saying, "Fare thee well today"
That
Bushes And Briars (thistles And Thorns) Lyrics
(By Sandy Denny. U.F.O. Music, Inc. (C) 1972)
I can't believe that it's so cold
And there ain't been no snow.
The sound of music it comes to me
>From every place I go.
Sunday morning, there's no one in church,
But the clergy's chosen man
And he is fine I won't worry about
Carnival Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
The summertime's escaping
And the carnival's away
And the sunshine is awaiting
For another sunny day
Breakers whisper to the shells upon the shore
And hear the seagulls they cry for more
And hear the gulls they cry for more
Good-day to you sweet autumn
So gently you
Crazy Lady Blues Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
This morning too didn't rise before noon
She's a lazy lady today
Always young and new with your eyes on the moon
You're a crazy lady like you said
Now should I say more before I know you so well?
You're no hazy maiden in gray
How can I be sure? It's not easy to tell
Dark The Night Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
Love, oh, don't we know
How can the river flow
Without you
Warming like the sand
Upon the land
How can we doubt you?
Dark to me the night
And dim the morning light tomorrow
How can we not see
The simple melody of sorrow?
Oh, to be with you
Oh, to see them through
Th
Down In The Flood Lyrics
(Bob Dylan)
Crash on the levee, mama
Water's gonna overflow
Swamp's gonna rise
No boat's gonna row
You can train on down
To Williams Point
And you bust your feet
And rock this joint
But oh, mama
You gonna miss your best friend now?
You're gonna have to find yourself
Another best
For Nobody To Hear Lyrics
(By Sandy Denny. U.F.O. Music, Inc. (C) 1972)
Although the flames they are so dim,
I can see them from over here.
But, this is no time to worry now,
No time to shed a tear.
The people are all smiling,
The letters are all too,
The flowers they are all arranged
And the not
Friends Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
I've watched you rise up
And I've watched you fall down
Till you've lost everything
But what money can own
And you feel alright now but for how long?
Feel alright now, how long?
Do me a favour stay away from my door
I could use some good company
But I don't care for
Gold Dust Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
If your eyes are blue you know the rest
Champagne if it's very cool
It's never very formal how you dress
For oysters by the swimming pool
Then slip away into the mountainside
Like the man in the Lazy E
It's great to have a place where you can hide
Why you must amaze
It Suits Me Well Lyrics
(By Sandy Denny. U.F.O. Music, Inc. (C) 1972)
My name is Jan the gypsy
I travel the land.
There are no chains about me
I am me own man.
I can tell a fair old story which I'm sure ain't no surprise
Of the places I have been, oh,
And they ain't no lies.
I've never had a p
It'll Take A Long Time Lyrics
(By Sandy Denny. U.F.O. Music, Inc. (C) 1972)
Oh it's like a storm at sea,
And everything is lost
And, the fretful sailors
Calling out their woes,
As to the waves they're tossed.
Oh, they are all gentlemen,
And never will they know
If there is a reason each of them
Mus
Late November Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
The wine it was drunk
The ship it was sunk
The shot it was dead
All the sorrows were drowned
The birds they were clouds
The brides and the shrouds
And as we drew south
The mist it came down
The wooded ravine
To the wandering stream
The serpent he moved
But no one wo
Like An Old Fashioned Waltz Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
Roses are red, and violets are blue
Primroses pale on a velvet green hue
Warm summer days by cool waterfalls
Like the music we hear
Those things we'll always hold dear
Like an old fashioned waltz
When the moonlight shines down
On the Hollywood world
And the heroine
Next Time Around Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
Then came the question, and it was about time
The answer came back and it was long
The house it was built by some man in a rhyme
But whatever came of his talented son?
Who wrote me a dialogue set to a tune?
Always you told me of being alone
Except for the stories ab
No End Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
They said that it was snowing
In astounded tones upon the news
I wonder why they're always so surprised
'Cos every year it snows
Frozen images of snowploughs
As they churn along the motorways
I haven't had no boots to wear
Or any loot to spare
For days and days
I've
No More Sad Refrains Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
Here comes the morning how it pleases
It always brings me something new
Its golden light will wash away the dust of yesterday
If I try it may let me forget you
And when these winter days are over
I mean to set myself upon my feet
I see me as something that I have ne
Silver Threads And Golden Needles Lyrics
(Jack Rhodes, Dick Reynolds)
I don't want your lonely mansion
With a tear in every room
All I want's the love you've promised
Beneath the halo moon
But you think I should be happy
With your money and your name
And hide myself in sorrows
While you play your cheatin' game

Sweet Rosemary Lyrics
(By Sandy Denny. U.F.O. Music, Inc. (C) 1972)
My young man, oh he is so fine,
Sweet Rosemary did say.
She gathered flowers and she sang
All about her wedding day.
Oh when I was a lass at school
I looked out at the sky,
And now among the woodlands cool,
Gathering sweet p
Take Me Away Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
Such sweet love is so hard to find
Look around, these are troublesome times
The sun beats down on our hunger and thirst
It would soon all be over if we let it be worse
chorus:
Take me away, take me away
Take me away, take me away
If not for you how would I keep goin
The Lady Lyrics
(By Sandy Denny. U.F.O. Music, Inc. (C) 1972)
The lady she had a silver longue.
For to sing she said,
And maybe that's all.
Wait for the dawn and we will have that song.
When it ends it will seem
That we hear silence fall.
The lady she had a golden heart,
For to love sh
The Music Weaver Lyrics
(By Sandy Denny. U.F.O. Music, Inc. (C) 1972)
I'm a long way from you,
I'm a long way from home.
And who cares for the f
Of being alone.
The notes and the words
They will always unfold
And I'm left with a manuscript
That will grow old
And the secret's all told anyway.
The North Star Grassman And The Ravens Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
They stood upon the deck
As the ship went out to sea
The wind it took the sails
And left the land a memory
All upon the shore for
To wonder why the sailor goes
All to close their eyes
And wonder what the sailor knows
That is you to they
That is how they think you ar
Whispering Grass Lyrics
(D. Fisher, F. Fisher)
Why do you whisper, green grass
Why tell the trees what ain't so?
Whispering grass
The trees don't have to know
Why tell them all your secrets
Who kissed there long ago?
Whispering grass
The trees don't need to know
Now don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cos
Wretched Wilbur Lyrics
(Sandy Denny)
The summer was the reason
Why it took so long to see
That even if I do possess
Some seeds of honesty
There is no garden
So how come I have no land?
I shall be waiting here awhile
To see what comes to hand
Misers, mice, and compromise
I know what I have seen
The wand
