| Lyrics: | Franklin's Tower (Roll Away the Dew)
-
In another time's forgotten space
your
eyes looked from your mother's face,
wildflower seed on sand and stone
may the four winds
blow you safely home.
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, roll
away the dew
I'll tell you where the four winds dwell,
In Franklin's tower there
hangs a bell,
It can ring -- turn night to day
It can ring like fire when you lose your
way.
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, roll away the
dew
God save the child that rings that bell,
It may have one good ring, baby you
can't tell,
One watch by night, one watch by day
If you get confused listen to the music
play
Some come to laugh their past away
Some come to make it just one more
day;
Whichever way your pleasure tends
If you plant ice, you're gonna harvest
wind
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, roll away the
dew
In Franklin's tower the four winds sleep,
Like four lean hounds the lighthouse
keep,
Wildflower seeds in the sand and wind
May the four winds blow you home
again
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, you better roll away
the dew
Roll away the dew, you better roll away the dew --roll away!
Roll away the dew,
you better roll away the dew --roll away!
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew --roll
away!
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew |
