On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day[00:00:06]
I saw her first and knew[00:00:12]
That her dark hair would weave a snare[00:00:19]
That I may one day rue[00:00:25]
I saw the danger yet I walked[00:00:31]
Along the enchanted way[00:00:38]
And I said let grief be a falling leaf[00:00:43]
At the dawning of the day[00:00:48]
On Grafton Street in November[00:00:55]
We tripped lightly along the ledge[00:01:00]
Of a deep ravine where can be seen[00:01:07]
The worst of passions pledged[00:01:13]
The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts[00:01:19]
And I not making hay[00:01:24]
Well I loved too much by such and such[00:01:30]
Is happiness thrown away[00:01:36]
I gave her the gifts of the mind[00:02:30]
I gave her the secret sign[00:02:35]
That's known to all the artists who have[00:02:41]
Known true Gods of Sound and Time[00:02:47]
With word and tint I did not stint[00:02:52]
I gave her reams of poems to say[00:02:58]
With her own dark hair and her own name there[00:03:04]
Like the clouds over fields of May[00:03:07]
On a quiet street where old ghosts meet[00:03:17]
I see her walking now away from me[00:03:23]
So hurriedly my reason must allow[00:03:30]
For I have wooed not as I should[00:03:40]
A creature made of clay[00:03:45]
When the angel woos the clay he'll lose[00:03:51]
His wings at the dawn of the day[00:03:57]
