Intro: Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well verse 1 The sea came in and washed me out The way was carved in ice The tokens of a buried past The shavings of a heavy life The wind blows each and every way It’s not for me my heart to steer I cast up what I have each day The river flows the whole long year Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well verse 2 The fires moved my heart so far Now colours can’t be seen The distant call of far-off stars Haunting o’er what might have been And all an ending was begun Come with me ’cross the care-trod floor Come with me to the holy song And with time’s passing to the core Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well verse 3 She knows how and she knows when She’s born to die and live and again She goes from moor to build a nest She knows the dance that burns her best From the ashes fair to share The purest sounds to leaden heads Sung from her best and bends the old trees Wingèd wind songs sung so holy Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love Hard road under the night sky Keep on travelling fare thee well my love
