Oysterband - We Shall Come Home lyrics

Wild wood, setting sun It makes the shadows longer Wise blood, cut and run Away, away Wild wood, setting sun It makes the shadows stronger I need to touch someone At the dying of the day Wild wood, bush and briar It makes your feet to stumble Wise blood, the sky's on fire Away, away Wild wood, bush and briar It makes your hands to tremble Love, you mustn't tire At the dying of the day CHORUS Like the child that needs protection For whom his mother prays Through a world that needs correction We wander all our days Wild to make our mark We shall come home We shall come home We shall come home We shall come home before dark Wild wood, dark and deep This is a world of danger Wise blood, better keep Away, away Wild wood, dark and deep The world is getting stranger Love, don't fall asleep At the dying of the day CHORUS We shall come home We shall come home We shall come home We shall come home before dark Oh ... We shall come home ... We shall come home ... We shall come home ... ... Home ...
