Fragile Flower from Calling by Jemima Thewes

Oh my Darling one
And oh, my friends,
Oh my Lover
I will miss you once again

For when days are long
And the nights
Are full of fright
Oh, Who will be there
In the dark
In the darkest time

And when morning comes
And I look to my side,
I see you there with your hands in the air
And all eyes are wide.

Oh my papa comes
And he calls into the wing.
Singing 'Wind in the Willows'
And Jacobite tales
To while
the time
away.

Oh my mama
My brothers
My sisters
Oh, and you
Oh, you hold me
And you soothe me.
You know you brought me through.

And the world goes
Round and Round and
Oh will I, will I
Sing my song?
Oh the days, the days
Will rise
And
Oh the light
Will shine.

Fragile Flower
Oh your light Remains
You were taken From this life
And I,
I stayed.

Fragile Flower
Oh your beauty stays
In our hearts
In our minds
Our souls
Our eyes
All will stay.

And the world goes
Round and Round
oh will I, will I
Sing my song?
Oh the days, the days
Will rise
And oh the light
Will shine.
