Lyrics
How Long
by Tony McGlinchey and Tammy Jann
© 2019
this place you stand and claim is yours
scars you wear from all those storms
the soil you've pierced and are living on
do you wonder where the years have gone
you watched me play and laugh and cry
you have shaded me and kept me dry
I climbed your highest bows, to sleep
you've rocked me with a gentle breeze
how long have you been stood there for
before cobbled roads,cart or horse
did you watch the men march off to war
how long have you stood there for
seasons change the moods you show
from green to yellow, yellow to gold
the sun the rain the sleet and snow
north winds leave a thick moss coat
that river you touch with your bare feet
runs fast from the hills her depth is deep
those views you stand surrounded by
would make the hardest of us cry
how long have you been stood there for
before cobbled roads, cart or horse
did you watch the men march off to war
how long have you stood there for
