Singer's Request
Nic Jones
Chorus:
Dark the night and long 'til day
Do not bid us further stray
Dark the night and long 'til day
Do not bid us further stray.
Now the sun it does decline
Pour the beer and pour the wine,
We can lead your thoughts astray
From the world or from the day
We bring songs of history,
Love and war and mystery
We can lead you from despair
Or can cheer the darkening air
You can choose to pass us by
With a cruel or scornful eye
We will see the ending through,
Then we'll turn and say to you...
