Текст песни A Slow Day - Allan Wilson

Come on my son
Just sit with me a while
The ocean's cold and the nights are long
But there's summer in your smile
The dawn is breaking, the town is waking
The sun shines in your eyes
And the wind comes from the mountain
Sighs its breath over all our lives

I know you've been thinking
Of leaving me behind
This town's too small
And you are full of the future in your mind
It takes me back to the summer's day
Just after you were born
Sitting on our balcony
As both our lives were torn

Oh, it was a slow day
The clouds covered the mountainside and
She'd gone away
The wine was going to its long home
And I was fading away again
Just hoping we'd be okay

Oh I love you
You're all that I have
Do you think of me when you travelling
Or when I'm not there am I really gone?
I raised you on my knee
Though all I can leave you with a song
Now you are singing
That I'll be all alone

The trees will remember you
Climbing on high
The branches of memory
Reaching up toward the sky
'Till death do us part' she said
No lie
Now I've lost her and I'm losing you
This is my black lullaby
