Sandy Denny - Wretched Wilbur Lyrics
The summer was the reasonWhy it took so long to seeThat even if I do possessSome seeds of honesty,There is no garden,So how come I have no land?I shall be waiting here awhileTo see what comes to hand.Misers mise and compromise;I know what I have seen.The wanderers are in the east;Thats where I should have been.But I did not go there;I couldnt find the way.I do believe I made a try,But I really couldnt say.Oh, that wretched wilbur,He keeps ploughing up the land.He fights the battle thoughtfullyWith roses in his hands.But where is the fight now?So play us your merry song.The autumn, it has blown away,And the winter, it is long.
