Beeswing (Live) - Christy Moore[00:00:00]
I was 18 when I came to town[00:00:11]
They called it the summer of love[00:00:14]
Burning babies burning flags[00:00:16]
The hawks against the doves[00:00:19]
I took a job at the steaming way[00:00:21]
Down on caltrim st[00:00:24]
Fell in love with a laundry girl[00:00:26]
That was workin' next to me[00:00:29]
Brown hair zig zagged across her face[00:00:32]
And a look of half surprise[00:00:35]
Like a fox caught in the headlights[00:00:37]
There was animal in her eyes[00:00:40]
She said to me[00:00:44]
Can't you see I'm not the factory kind[00:00:45]
If you don't take me out of here[00:00:49]
I'll surely lose my mind[00:00:52]
She was a rare thing fine as a bee's wing[00:00:55]
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away[00:01:00]
She was a lost child she was runnin' wild[00:01:05]
She said[00:01:10]
So long as there's no price on love I'll stay[00:01:10]
You wouldn't want me any other way[00:01:15]
We busked around the market towns[00:01:23]
Fruit pickin' down in kent[00:01:25]
We could tinker pots and pans[00:01:28]
Or knives wherever we went[00:01:31]
We were campin' down the gower one time[00:01:33]
The work was mighty good[00:01:35]
She wouldn't wait for the harvest[00:01:38]
I thought we should[00:01:41]
I said to her we'll settle down[00:01:44]
Get a few acres dug[00:01:46]
A fire burning in the hearth[00:01:49]
And babies on the rug[00:01:51]
She said oh man you foolish man[00:01:55]
That surely sounds like hell[00:01:58]
You might be lord of half the world[00:02:01]
You'll not own me as well[00:02:04]
She was a rare thing fine as a bee's wing[00:02:07]
So fine a breath of wind might blow her away[00:02:12]
She was a lost child she was runnin' wild[00:02:17]
She said[00:02:21]
So long as there's no price on love I'll stay[00:02:22]
You wouldn't want me any other way[00:02:27]
We were drinking more in those days[00:02:35]
Our tempers reached a pitch[00:02:37]
Like a fool I let her run away[00:02:39]
When she took the rambling itch[00:02:42]
Last I heard she was living rough[00:02:44]
Back on the derby beat[00:02:47]
A bottle of white horse in her pocket[00:02:49]
A wolfhound at her feet[00:02:52]
They say that she got married once[00:02:55]
To a man called romany brown[00:02:58]
Even a gypsy caravan[00:03:00]
Was too much like settlin' down[00:03:02]
They say her rose has faded[00:03:06]
Rough weather and hard booze[00:03:09]
Maybe that's the price you pay[00:03:12]
For the chains that you refuse[00:03:15]
She was a rare thing fine as a bee's wing[00:03:18]
I miss her more than ever words can say[00:03:23]
If I could just taste all of her wildness now[00:03:28]
If I could hold her in my arms today[00:03:33]
I wouldn't want her any other way[00:03:38]
