lirik lagu van morrison – raglan road
on raglan road on an autumn day
i saw her first and knew
that her dark hair would weave a snare
that i may one day rue
i saw the danger, yet i walked
along the enchanted way
and i said,? let grief be a falling leaf
at the dawning of the day?
i said, on grafton street in november
we tripped lightly along the ledge
of a deep ravine where can be seen
the worst of p-ssions pledged
the ‘queen of hearts’ still baking tarts
and i, and i, and i, and i not making hay
well, i loved too much by such and such
is happiness thrown away, alright
i gave her the gifts of the mind
i gave her the secret sign
that’s known to all the artists who have
known true gods of sound and time
with word and tint i never did not stint
i gave her reams of, reams of poems to say
with her own name there and her shiny black hair
like the clouds over fields of may
on a quiet street where old ghosts meet
i see, i see her walking now
away from me, away from me so hurriedly
my reason, my reason, my reason, my reason must allow
for i have wooed, not as i should
a creature made of clay
when the angel woos the clay, he’ll lose
his wings at the dawn of the day, alright
