The Lady is Risen

She loves full and true, as a fighting bequest She was given her earth by a sea come to rest And the children she bore loved this truly too much Calloused pride come to die in our hands as we touch And so soften me now, let me take as it's given For the wind's started up and the lady is risen Is it snowing in London and warm in your bed Have I nothing to give you, I'm cold in your head But you're burning in mine, come to rest off the train In the silence you've gone and the train comes again It's been years since I saw you, I've learned how to live And the love's back in swing and the lady is risen Tell me where have the saints gone, oh where is the pull Are they flourished in times that were guarded with wool You know limbless they marched till they fell off the map. Are you sick of them falling like crumbs on your lap You once told me that this isn't all that there is And the band started up and the lady is risen. You know life isn't always like the end of your novels All things might wind up but they always unravel And I'll watch you with eyes that can see I can see That you're too good at pulling that wool over me And I'll fight but there's nothing here I find to resist And the winds started up and the lady is risen --- The Lady is Risen - Johnny Flynn
