Winter Hours - Carpenters' Square Lyrics
When he walked to town that eveningSky was cool and it was clearThough the night fell quickly on himHe was young and had no fearThough the road was lined with briersIt was straight as it was brokeDriven on by his desiresHe walked on that lonely roadAnd he bore his love so lightlyThough heavy were his waresFor there was a girl, he hoped to seeThat night in the Carpenters' SquareWhen he reached the town, he saw herIn her finest silk was sheThen he knew he made her heavenFor he wore simple workman's gearAnd her eyes, they burned so brightlyAnd her gaze, it was so fairAnd she filled his mind completelyAll the way back from Carpenters' SquareAnd his gait fell twice as heavyAnd his love to big to bearAs he walked from town that FridayAll the way back from Carpenters' SquareAnd her eyes, they burned so brightlyAnd her gaze, it was so fairAnd she filled his mind completelyAll the way back from Carpenters' SquareWhen he walked to town that eveningSky was cool and it was clearThough the night fell quickly on himHe was young and had no fear
