Singer’s Lament
Jack Hardy
[Verse 1]
So long, so long
Gonna say goodbye
Bird wingin' along
In the woad-blue sky
In the crack of the dawn
I will slip on by
No need to wake no one
No one will cry
[Verse 2]
All the leaves have gone
Since I last was here
Don't sing the same songs
That we did last year
I got a big new car
And a TV screen
No need to shorten the dark
With the likes of me
[Verse 3]
But I might shorten the road
With a story or two
What the frost might show
If you dig right through
Somethin' buried inside
It's your own sweet song
In the blink of an eye
So long, so long
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 1]
So long, so long
Gonna say goodbye
Bird wingin' along
In the woad-blue sky
In the crack of the dawn
I will slip on by
No need to wake no one
No onе will cry
