lyrics

This Isn’t Fate

Hope plucks a harp string
As a mother sobs at parting
From a swaddled life just starting
The snow lay deep here last spring

Grit and graft will see you
Whilst others stand beside you
These daffodils will grow through
Amongst the trees that always stood here

He’ll place a stone on the cairn
So those that follow can find the way
The moonlight fades. This isn’t fate

We’ll ride the buses all night
He’ll sink a few before a fight
Her words fell silent despite
Feet ready to run and blue eyes bright

He suffered the majority
Whilst knowing morality
Building for his city
These arteries flowed ultimately

He’ll place a stone on the cairn
So those that follow can find the way
The moonlight fades. This isn’t fate
