my home has been a warrior field
|
where now and then I¡¯ve seen
|
a rainbow rising over the graves
|
down in the gentle green
|
and as I waltzed across the mine
|
time sped to breathlessly
|
as I fought for love
|
and I sang for love
|
too late, love comes to me
|
|
I saw you coming over the hill
|
So strong, so brave, so true
|
I fell down to my knees and cried
|
The way I used to do
|
It came at such surprise to me
|
I thought those tears had passed
|
Is it god who laughs this heart awake?
|
Too late, love comes at last
|
|
O lovers how they come and go
|
Like waves upon the shore
|
Brave hearts can drown in the briny deep
|
And still cry out for more
|
My treasure¡¯s in the water now
|
My pearls are lost at sea
|
And my heart must bend like a rainbow
|
Too late, you¡¯ve come to me
|
