The Faceless Pixies


Wid Mountain Roses

You sat in the sun on your seat in the tree
The barn owl had flown and the day was ours free
We walked to the woods at the start of the spring
Sat down on a log and you started to sing

 Songs about loneliness, livin' and love
Songs of the blessings that come from above
Songs of laughter, songs of tears
Songs that keep memories safe down the years

 We walked with the dogs by the edge of the sea
The children were happy and joyous and free
We talked about livin', truth and of trees
And the music that comes as a gift on the breeze

 Songs about loneliness, livin' and love
Songs of the blessings that come from above
Songs of laughter, songs of tears
Songs that keep memories safe down the years

 You stood at the mic in the smoke of the bar
Your eyes held the glow of some far distant star
Your songs were as pure and as free and as true
As wild mountain roses all sparkling with dew

A combination of technical mystification, sloth and happenstance mean the recordings are not great quality yet.
