Michael Head - A Green Cornfield lyrics
[Michael Head - A Green Cornfield lyrics]
The earth was green, the sky was blue:
I saw and heard one sunny morn
A skylark hang between the two
A singing speck above the corn
The cornfield stretch'd a tender green
To right and left beside my walks
I knew he had a nest unseen
Some where among the million stalks:
And as I paus'd to hear his song
While swift the sunny moments slid
Perhaps his mate sat list'ning long
And listen'd longer than I did
I saw and heard one sunny morn
A skylark hang between the two
A singing speck above the corn
The cornfield stretch'd a tender green
To right and left beside my walks
I knew he had a nest unseen
Some where among the million stalks:
And as I paus'd to hear his song
While swift the sunny moments slid
Perhaps his mate sat list'ning long
And listen'd longer than I did
