[00:00:06] On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day

[00:00:12] I saw her first and knew

[00:00:19] That her dark hair would weave a snare

[00:00:25] That I may one day rue

[00:00:31] I saw the danger yet I walked

[00:00:38] Along the enchanted way

[00:00:43] And I said let grief be a falling leaf

[00:00:48] At the dawning of the day

[00:00:55] On Grafton Street in November

[00:01:00] We tripped lightly along the ledge

[00:01:07] Of a deep ravine where can be seen

[00:01:13] The worst of passions pledged

[00:01:19] The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts

[00:01:24] And I not making hay

[00:01:30] Well I loved too much by such and such

[00:01:36] Is happiness thrown away

[00:02:30] I gave her the gifts of the mind

[00:02:35] I gave her the secret sign

[00:02:41] That's known to all the artists who have

[00:02:47] Known true Gods of Sound and Time

[00:02:52] With word and tint I did not stint

[00:02:58] I gave her reams of poems to say

[00:03:04] With her own dark hair and her own name there

[00:03:07] Like the clouds over fields of May

[00:03:17] On a quiet street where old ghosts meet

[00:03:23] I see her walking now away from me

[00:03:30] So hurriedly my reason must allow

[00:03:40] For I have wooed not as I should

[00:03:45] A creature made of clay

[00:03:51] When the angel woos the clay he'll lose

[00:03:57] His wings at the dawn of the day
