Tears and Pavan - Strawbs, Acoustic Strawbs

I — Tears

Cousins

Where are the tears that you should be crying right now?

I see the world weariness in your eyes

I hear your voice, soft and sad

Yet your laughter rings like carillons of bells in my ears.

Where are the tears that you should be crying right now?

I see the world weariness in your eyes

I feel your heart beat like the wings of the wild goose

I smell your love on me

I can still taste the tears that you should be crying right now.

II — Pavan

Hudson-Ford-Cousins

Oh darling go to sleep for the night is young

There are many songs yet to be sung

Oh but I will sing them all to you

Before the night is through.

And when she lies in need of care and comforting

So as a child’s toy she is caressed

And yet when cast adrift upon the changing tide

As a ship becalmed, she lies at rest

Oh darling go to sleep for the night is young

There are many songs yet to be sung

Oh but I will sing them all to you

Before the night is through.

Oh darling go to sleep for the night is young

There are many songs yet to be sung

Oh but I will sing them all to you

Before the night is through.
