Black Day In Deptember

Mermaid sits on a side wash rock in the harbor Watching the children play And every day sun or rain Old Man kneels to the earth to pray For the rain and stars And the cars at the heart The dark and windy Vancouver (break) A black day in December She sees the worst is yet to come yeah A big wave on the horizon A\G The first wind blowing in Left Stanley soldiers felled and broken And we went oh oh And Old Man kneels to the earth In his mother's garden Where his own father was laid And every day sun or rain Mermaid sits on her rock and she prays For the salmon in the sea For the winged in the trees For the Old Man on his knees Oh and for the beauty in the park And the cars at the heart Her own sisters and her brothers And ten thousand friends and lovers (Break) Black day in December A black day in December Mermaid sits on a tide wash rock in the harbor Where the blue heron would lay And every day sun or rain Old friends fall to the earth and decay With the city by the sea Sweet brine in the breeze With the mountains watching over Her Vancouver (Break) Black day in December A black day in December Black day in December A black day in December Oh oh
