All is Come Undone

No one knows what happened on the hill

And ask the lady's relative, I ask you for your patience

I will balance all the ledgers you require

I know your gates were trampled when her cows escaped into your shire

As to these events and what we know of things to come

A letter floated to the ground and all is come undone

All is come undone

All is come undone

And vanished with the sun

I've only seen your hamlet from afar

She told me of the roads that catch the light and laughter of the golden hour

The creaking shop doors as they close

And laughing boys who run with the empty bags that held the evening post

And as to these events and what we know of things to come

A letter floated to the ground and all is come undone

All is come undone

All is come undone

And vanished with the sun

But if I'm to understand what you have said

You have declined my offer to install her cousin in her stead

I ask forgiveness at this time

I am humbled by your plea

You want her to return, as she is

More than just her patronage

She is a daughter of your village

She worked beside you from spring to autumn's end

But letters do come by the post

They break her will again

Break us down again

Broke her heart again

No one knows what happens then

As well, you saw this morning on the hill

Her horse is in the stable now, the men are at the mill

She thanks you for the apples by her gate

And hopes that when the moon is full you'll join her once again to celebrate

For she knows that the harvest has begun

The autumn feast rewards our time when

All is well and done

All is well and done

All is well and done

With the blessing of the sun
