《The Gay Goshawk》歌词

[00:00:00] The Gay Goshawk - Mr Fox

[00:00:09] The gay goshawk came to my window sill;

[00:00:16] The snow it fell fast and the stars stood still;

[00:00:22] Oh won't you take me in from the storm;

[00:00:28] Won't you take me between your sheets so warm

[00:00:36] Gold was the colour of his wings so fair;

[00:00:42] His eyes they were bold and of silver so rare;

[00:00:47] As I lay his brown body down upon the pillow;

[00:00:54] He became a man - lithe as a willow

[00:00:59] Don't breathe a word don't speak don't shout;

[00:01:04] I can turn the whole world round about;

[00:01:10] Lay the moon flat on the land;

[00:01:15] Whisper rope out of flying sand

[00:01:20] Whispering women so happy beguiled;

[00:01:27] Now that he's gone she must care for the child;

[00:01:32] Jasmine's the colour of his hair;

[00:01:38] The nut-brown boy with the silvery stare

[00:02:27] The night has long gone and the seasons slip by;

[00:02:33] Knowing seducers still give me the eye;

[00:02:39] But on cold winter's evenings alone I walk;

[00:02:45] I watch and I pray for my gay goshawk
