Yarrow

I woke up the birds were singing
My love I wished to see
There she was on the edge of the bed
She was waiting there for me

And the light shone through my window
It was gleaming through her blouse
She laid down beside me
We spent the day entranced

Yarrow, yarrow, yarrow she said to me
I am a wounded man, yarrow I'll take from thee

The love we shared that morning
I long for it today
But I'm in Tuscaloosa
I'm a million miles away

The еvening's so hot and it’s cloudy
It's thick with tomorrow's rain
I'm tired of thesе fools that surround me
They're just looking for something to gain

Yarrow, yarrow, yarrow she said to me
I am a wounded man, yarrow I'll take from thee

I looked there behind me
To see what I could see
There she was, my beloved
She was coming after me

For the flowers they'll all wither
And the tall pines they will fall
If ever I lose my love
It'll be my downfall

Yarrow, yarrow, yarrow she said to me
I am a wounded man, yarrow I'll take from thee
