Art Garfunkel - The Creatures of the Field Lyrics

Font:

Align:

And the creatures of the field

Waited in the silence of Gabriel's departing

And in the meadow kneeled

Still but for the sound of a frightened faun starting

'Til the owl said:

"Who raised up a clamor so harsh and deep?"

The owl said:

"Who caused gentle Mary to fret and weep?"

"Her window glows brightly

I fear that she cannot sleep."

Mary paced her room

[-unintelligible choir line]

Wishing that her heartbeat

Would cease its fearful pounding

Peered into the gloom

Silent as a tomb,

Not one distant drum sounding

As the owl said:

"Who caused such a stillness to mystify the earth-

And why?

See how she searches the darkened sky.

Who is there among us to sing her a lullaby?"

"Sing me a lullaby...."
