A Village Lyrics by Jumbotown

Fallin’ Leaves

2023

Drowned, your footsteps and chatter
Good mornings and asking the matter
All your children's laughter
A village, a watery grave

Over your walls, past your defences
Hedges, gates, through all your fences
After all they were only pretences
A village, a watery grave

Milky moon
Cows are late
Did some damn fool
Not shut the gate?
At the doorstep
The threshold's green
Scrub all you like
It won't come up clean

Drowned, your church, your crossеs and stones
Stables, farms, gardens and homеs
All you left, no longer your own
A village, a watery grave

Milky moon
Cows are late
Did some damn fool
Not shut the gate?
At the doorstep
The threshold's green
Scrub all you like
It won't come up clean

Drowned, your footsteps and chatter
Good mornings and asking the matter
All your children's laughter
A village, a watery grave
A village, a watery grave
A village, a wave, a watery grave
