lyrics

I saw you in the morning sun, in the cold and frosty morning
I saw I was my father’s son in the softness of your warning
Take me down with you at the threshing time
Take this hand I give to you for a warning sign

Ten dead men on a bed of chaff and the sound of women weeping
Ten men’s voices start to laugh like a devil softly seething
Take me down with you at the threshing time
Take this hand I give to you for a warning sign

If I run I want to run with you, before the sun there’s nothing they can do
We’re just two more faces lost, we’re just two more faces lost
I know somewhere where the night won’t end, tell your mother that our lives depend
That we’re two more faces lost, that we’re two more faces lost

And if the headsman pays a call
Or I’m up against a wall
Don’t worry you won’t take a fall
At the threshing time

I cried out when they took his life as a flock of crows were scattered
To know his name was to know the knife as though knowing was what mattered
Take me down with you at the threshing time
Take this hand I give to you for a warning sign

If I run I want to run with you, before the sun there’s nothing they can do
We’re just two more faces lost, we’re just two more faces lost
I know somewhere where the night won’t end, tell your mother that our lives depend
That we’re two more faces lost, that we’re two more faces

I saw you in the morning sun, in the cold and frosty morning
I saw I was my father’s son in the softness of your warning
Take me down, take me down with you at the threshing time
Take this hand, take this hand I give you for a warning sign

If I run I want to run with you, before the sun there’s nothing they can do
We’re just two more faces lost, we’re just two more faces lost
I know somewhere where the night won’t end, tell your mother that our lives depend
That we’re two more faces lost, that we’re two more faces lost

And if the headsman pays a call
Or I’m up against the wall
Don’t worry you won’t take a fall
At the threshing time
