Lyrics
0:05She came to me one morning
0:08One lonely sunday morning
0:11Her long hair flowing
0:14In the midwinter wind
0:17I know not how she found me
0:19For in darkness I was walking
0:22And destruction lay around me
0:25From a fight I could not win
0:28Ah ah ah
0:47She asked me name my foe then
0:50I said the need within some men
0:53To fight and kill their brothers
0:55Without thought of love or god
0:58And I begged her give me horses
1:01To trample down my enemies
1:04So eager was my passion
1:06To devour this waste of life
1:10Ah ah ah
1:21But she wouldn't think of battle that
1:23Reduces men to animals
1:26So easy to begin
1:28And yet impossible to end
1:32For she's the mother of our men
1:34Who counselled me so wisely then
1:37I feared to walk alone again
1:40And asked if she would stay
1:54Oh lady lend your hand outright
1:57And let me rest here at your side
1:59Have faith and trust
2:01In peace she said
2:02And filled my heart with life
2:05There is no strength in numbers
2:07Have no such misconception
2:10But when you need me
2:12Be assured I won't be far away
2:16Ah ah ah
2:27Thus having spoke she turned away
2:29And though I found no words to say
2:32I stood and watched until I saw
2:35Her black coat disappear
2:38My labour is no easier
2:40But now I know I'm not alone
2:43I find new heart each time
2:45I think upon that windy day
2:49And if one day she comes to you
2:51Drink deeply from her words so wise
2:54Take courage from her
2:56As your prize
2:57And say hello from me
3:00Ah ah ah
She came to me one morning One lonely sunday morning Her long hair flowing In the midwinter wind I know not how she found me For in darkness I was walking And destruction lay around me From a fight I could not win Ah ah ah She asked me name my foe then I said the need within some men To fight and kill their brothers Without thought of love or god And I begged her give me horses To trample down my enemies So eager was my passion To devour this waste of life Ah ah ah But she wouldn't think of battle that Reduces men to animals So easy to begin And yet impossible to end For she's the mother of our men Who counselled me so wisely then I feared to walk alone again And asked if she would stay Oh lady lend your hand outright And let me rest here at your side Have faith and trust In peace she said And filled my heart with life There is no strength in numbers Have no such misconception But when you need me Be assured I won't be far away Ah ah ah Thus having spoke she turned away And though I found no words to say I stood and watched until I saw Her black coat disappear My labour is no easier But now I know I'm not alone I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day And if one day she comes to you Drink deeply from her words so wise Take courage from her As your prize And say hello from me Ah ah ah
