Raglan Road - Damien Leith[00:00:00]
On Raglan Road on an autumn day[00:00:07]
I saw her first and knew[00:00:14]
That her dark hair would weave a snare[00:00:20]
That I might one day rue[00:00:27]
I saw the danger and[00:00:33]
I passed along the enchanted way[00:00:38]
And I said[00:00:46]
Let grief be a fallen leaf at the dawning of the day[00:00:48]
On Grafton Street in November[00:00:59]
We tripped lightly along the ledge[00:01:06]
Of the deep ravine[00:01:12]
Where can be seen the worth of passion's pledge[00:01:15]
The Queen of Hearts still making tarts and[00:01:25]
I not making hay[00:01:33]
For I loved too much and by such by such[00:01:39]
Is happiness thrown away[00:01:45]
I gave her gifts of the mind[00:01:52]
I gave her the secret sign that's known[00:01:56]
To the artists who have known the true gods[00:02:07]
Of sound and stone[00:02:13]
And word and tint I did not stint[00:02:18]
I gave her poems to say[00:02:25]
With her own name there[00:02:31]
And her own dark hair like clouds over fields of May[00:02:34]
On a quiet street where old ghosts meet[00:02:44]
I see her walking now[00:02:51]
Away from me so hurriedly my reason must allow[00:02:57]
That I had wooed not as[00:03:10]
I should a creature made of clay[00:03:15]
When the angel woos the clay[00:03:23]
He'll lose his wings at the dawn of the day[00:03:28]
At the dawn of the day[00:03:39]
