Lyrics

Geese Flew in the Sky__TracK 9

Geese flew in the sky a long time ago.
Geese flew in the sky. A long time ago

Oooh-oo-ooo-oo-ooo
Oooh-oo-ooo-oo-ooo

Gold is the light, searching its sight,
To feathered flight–sky ship
Black is its call and cold its downfall
To ground and recall, and recall

Grey misty morn, sounding the horn. Alarming the loss, the loss
Clear honking sky, calling the reason why,
To Deaf heads below in the mire.

Oooh-oo-ooo-oo-ooo, Oooh-oo-ooo-oo-ooo.

Though dark is the night–score
Measures the light
Sings October November blues for Johnny
Come lately.
Sings October November blues for Johnny
Come lately

Oooh-oo-ooo-oo-ooo
Oooh-ooooo-oo-ooo

Though white white the wing, nothing can Take or bring
For time is the taker and the giver
For time is the taker and the giver

And Time she will take
And time she will bring.
