Seth Lakeman - Ballad of the Broken Few Lyrics




It comes to me across the years
A tune from long ago
A well loved song, a wistful air, the one that she loves so

We'd hear it on those sunny days
From the bird perched at his post
Barring forth his light and joyful tones, from note to purest note

I said, "Hey, come together"
Under the nightingales soaring tune
Here we will all remember her in the ballad of the broken few

We little guessed but changes meant
Had sorrows up ahead
How soon those fine and care free days will turn to doom and dread

And though the years went drifting on
An age it passed us by
No smile or verse could half compare to her last fermenting line

I said, "Hey, come together"
Under the nightingales soaring tune
Here we will all remember her in the ballad of the broken few

Now all alone I rest my time
In the muted melody
No deep refrain could ease my pain or replace such harmony

I said, "Hey, come together"
Under the nightingales soaring tune
Here we will all remember her in the ballad of the broken few
I said, "Hey, come together"
Under the nightingales soaring tune
Here we will all remember her in the ballad of the broken few
I said, "Hey, come together"
Under the nightingales soaring tune
Here we will all remember her in the ballad of the broken few
