Lyrics Fairport Convention

Fairport Convention

Decameron

She doesn't see the day to day

No colors where the children play

She doesn't see the things she's sown

White crosses painted on the door

See me fly, see me cry, see me walk away

Every time the sun shines, to me it's a rainy day

He didn't see the summer go

Though he knew what the shadows know

He didn't see his arm grow old

He didn't feel his blood run cold

See me fly, see me cry, see me walk away

Every time the sun shines, to me it's a rainy day

They listened to his voice grow pale

No stamps were on the morning mail

They all listened to the white truck ring

Words just didn't mean a thing

See me fly, see me cry, see me walk away

Every time the sun shines, to me it's a rainy day
