I walked in my greatcoat Down through the days of the leaves No before after, yes after before We were shining our light into the days of blooming wonder In the eternal presence, in the presence of the flame Didnt I come to bring you a sense of wonder Didnt I come to lift your fiery vision bright Didnt I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame On and on and on and on we kept singing our song Over newtonards and comber, gransha and the Ballystockart road With boffyflow and spike I said I could describe the leaves for samuel and felicity Rich, red browney, half burnt orange and green Didnt I come to bring you a sense of wonder Didnt I come to lift your fiery vision bright Didnt I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame Its easy to describe the leaves in the autumn And its oh so easy in the spring But down through january and february its a very different thing On and on and on, through the winter of our discontent When the wind blows up the collar and the ears are frostbitten too I said I could describe the leaves for samuel and what it means to you and me You may call my love sophia, but I call my love philosophy Didnt I come to bring you a sense of wonder Didnt I come to lift your fiery vision Didnt I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame Wee alfie at the Castle picture house on the castlereagh road Whistling on the corner next door where He kept johnny mack browns horse O solo mio by mcgimsey And the man who played the saw Outside the city hall Pastie suppers down at daveys chipper Gravy rings, barmbracks Wagon wheels, snowballs

I miss you so much, I cant stand it Seems like my heart is breaking in two My head says no but my soul demands it Everything I do, reminds me of you I miss you so much, in this house full of shadows While the rain keeps pouring down my window too When will the pain, recede to the darkness From whence it has come, and Im feeling so blue Aint goin down, no more to the well Sometimes it feels like Im going to hell Sometimes Im knocking on your front door But I dont have nothing to sell no more Seems like the spirit is pushing me onwards Im able to see, where I tripped and went wrong Ill just have to guess where my soul will find comfort And I miss you so much when Im singing my song Aint goin down, no more to the well And sometimes it seems, Im going to hell Youll find me knocking, on your front door But I dont have nothing, to sell no more Seems like my spirit is pushing me onwards Til Im able to see where I tripped when I went wrong Ill just have to guess where my soul will get comfort I miss you so much when Im singing my song I miss you so much, I cant stand it Seems like my heart is breaking in two My head says no, but my soul demands it And everything I do, reminds me of you Everything I do, reminds me of you Everything I do, reminds me of you Songwriter: Van Morrison

Now hes livin, livin with a gun
