Maccoll Kirsty - St Swithens Day

C      G
Thinking back now
          F                C                G
I suppose you were just stating your views
                C    G
What was it all for
        F                C        G
For the weather or the battle of Agincourt
F                                    G
And the times that we all hoped would last
         Am                         F
Like a train they have gone by so fast
              F                     C           G
And though we stood together at the edge of the platform
                C                G
We were not moved by them

                 C    G
With my own hands
              F                C     G
As I make love to your memory
                C   G
It's not the same
                F                C    G
I miss the thunder I miss the rain
F                                    G
And the fact that you don't understand
         Am                 F
Casts a shadow over this land
             C      G                C        G
But the sun still shines from behind it


Thanks all the same
But I just can't bring myself to answer your letters
It's not your fault
But your honesty touches me like a fire
The polaroids that keep us together
Will surely fade away
Like the love that we spoke of forever
On St. Swithins Day
