Sparrow-Mary Hopkin

[00:03.00]On sundaymorning everyone would leave the house [00:08.00]Dressed for the sunday service [00:11.00]And through the streets I used to know [00:14.00]They go to meet their friends and so they take the family seat [00:23.00]For the praise so honestly [00:26.00]For getting all around him [00:30.00]When Elenor sings in the choir [00:33.00]It’s like a larking summer [00:39.00]The sparrow sings the sparrow flies [00:42.00]With mighty wings he reaches [00:46.00]As high as any other bird [00:49.00]He shall inherite all the earth [00:52.00]The sparrow sings the sparrow flies [00:55.00]With mighty wings he reaches [00:58.00]As high as any other bird [01:02.00]He shall inherite all the earth [01:08.00]A world of silence will he send upon the town [01:12.00]In colors of the evening [01:15.00]The thought has troubled me before [01:19.00]I know alone I need a sound to fill each moment [01:27.00]I had to find it out my way [01:30.00]They couldn’t stop me leaving [01:33.00]As though they knew but could not say [01:37.00]They let me go believing [01:43.00]The sparrow sings the sparrow flies [01:46.00]With mighty wings he reaches [01:49.00]As high as any other bird [01:53.00]He shall inherite all the earth [01:56.00]The sparrow sings the sparrow flies [02:00.00]With mighty wings he reaches [02:03.00]As high as any other bird [02:06.00]He shall inherite all the earth [02:14.00]Through the blue and hazy drift of after two [02:18.00]The saxophone is moaning [02:22.00]I rise and step into the cruel night air
