Lyrics for Fotheringay by Unknown:
| | | Artist: | Unknown |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Fotheringay | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 173 | | | | Lyrics: | FOTHERINGAY
How often she has gazed from castle windows all
And watched the daylight
passing within her captive wall
With no one to heed her call
The evening hour is
fading within the dwindling sun
And in a lonely moment, those embers will be gone
And the
last of all the young birds flown
Her days of precious freedom, forfeited long
before
To live such fruitless years behind a guarded door
But those days will last no
more
Tomorrow, at this hour, she will be far away
Much farther than these islands,
for the lonely Fotheringay
Mary, Queen of Scots was imprisoned at the castle of
Fotheringay
by Queen Elizabeth I for conspiring to overthrow Elizabeth. While
it is not
clear that this refers to Mary, it is certainly tempting
to assume so.
