about

The choral backing you hear, came spontaneously from the audience, who were invited to the studio, for the session, to eat and drink and listen. They're listed on the back of the LP

lyrics

Long days
But worthy days
They tell me so
But in the quiet darkness
I don't know

By your eyes
What see you there
Is it my soul
Or else the empty heavens
I don't know

None do I bemoan
None do I scold
Nor hand I hold
Should I be feeling sorry
I don't know

Sweet is your song,
Your playful song
The answer's, 'No'
You ask me why that is, and
I don't know

Long, they call
And longer so
Than shadows grow
But how long they will,
My brother,
I don't know
