Verse
If you were coming in the fall,
I'd brush the summer by
With half a sm[C7]ile and half a sp[D]urn,
As housewives do a f[G7]ly.[C7] [D]
If I could s[G7]ee you in a year,
I'd wind the months in balls,
And put them e[C7]ach in separate d[D]rawers,
Until their time bef[G7]alls.[C7] [D]
Chorus
If only c[Bm]enturies delayed,
I'd count them [Em]on my h[C]and,
Subtracting t[G]ill my fingers dr[D]opped
Into Van Diemen's l[G]and.
If certain, w[Bm]hen this life was out,
That yours and m[Em]ine should [C]be,
I'd toss it y[G]onder like a r[D]ind,
And taste et[G]ernity.
Outro
[G7] [-] [C7] [-] [D]
Verse
But now, all [G7]ignorant of the length
Of time's uncertain wing,
It goads me, l[C7]ike the goblin b[D]ee,
That will not state its st[G7]ing[C7] [D]
Chorus
If only c[Bm]enturies delayed,
I'd count them [Em]on my h[C]and,
Subtracting t[G]ill my fingers dr[D]opped
Into Van Diemen's l[G]and.
If certain, w[Bm]hen this life was out,
That yours and m[Em]ine should [C]be,
I'd toss it y[G]onder like a r[D]ind,
And taste et[G]ernity.
Please rate thanks!
Lyrics:
If you were coming in the fall,
I'd brush the summer by
With half a smile and half a spurn,
As housewives do a fly.
If I could see you in a year,
I'd wind the months in balls,
And put them each in separate drawers,
Until their time befalls.
If only centuries delayed,
I'd count them on my hand,
Subtracting till my fingers dropped
Into Van Diemen's land.
If certain, when this life was out,
That yours and mine should be,
I'd toss it yonder like a rind,
And taste eternity.
But now, all ignorant of the length
Of time's uncertain wing,
It goads me, like the goblin bee,
That will not state its sting
