Lady Jay lyrics
Song information
Artist: Wishbone Ash Album: There's The Rub
Lyrics
Hear me when I cry Listen to my song Jay, my lovely lady To the earth she did belong
I, a country sir Loved her for my life But the manor lady's bright young son Did take her for his wife
Under forest branches She came to me Until the day she cried aloud A father I should be
That was the last time that we met I never saw her again For she took her life on princetown moor To save my worthy name
She found death's open arms And lay in their embrace I watched as icy fingers Clawed her lovely face
Now I stumble through the mist To where they laid her in her grave And daily I'll remember Flowers for my jay
Far beyond this land I will take your hand The spirit of our love will live forever Far beyond the clouds We will laugh aloud The spirit of our love will live again
