lyrics

In my finest poet’s pose I rehearsed my plea then
The park was Coole and
My will was strong

In her meekest sheepish clothes, she came to meet me
Divulge discreetly
Maud was already gone
She was already gone

From the West the coastal mist was falling quaintly
And from the East, the floating world was calling clear
And in the wind among the reeds, I heard her pleading faintly
As my pride arose against a tear

They said “she tested the wrong man”

Where every war involves a rose,
I roamed and conquered,
Fell despondent,
Soldiered on

Strewn along the path I chose, the blood of longing
Loss and mourning
Cast in song

Another ceremony hails another autumn
Another emblem borne to mark another year
Nostalgia’s sweet seductive sound drowns reason’s gentle calling
And so I strain again to hear

“You left at the right time”
