Drowned, your footsteps and chatter Good mornings and asking the matter All your children's laughter A village, a watery grave Over your walls, past your defences Hedges, gates, through all your fences After all they were only pretences A village, a watery grave Milky moon Cows are late Did some damn fool Not shut the gate? At the doorstep The threshold's green Scrub all you like It won't come up clean Drowned, your church, your crosses and stones Stables, farms, gardens and homes All you left, no longer your own A village, a watery grave Milky moon Cows are late Did some damn fool Not shut the gate? At the doorstep The threshold's green Scrub all you like It won't come up clean Drowned, your footsteps and chatter Good mornings and asking the matter All your children's laughter A village, a watery grave A village, a watery grave A village, a wave, a watery grave
