Weary all

 We are so weary,

Weary, weary all

Too tired and weary to get home

Weary of it all

Weary, weary

Weary so weary so weary all


We climbed that old hill

Scaled the mountain blue

Just to get a glimpse of the otherside

Where the grass is always greener

And our dreams they do reside

But we are so weary

Since the giants got meaner

And the Holy Thorn in a murder died


Weary, weary, weary all

Weary all hill

Won't you fill us with your reviving

Energies?

Won't you try to tame us, reclaim us, re-name us

Won't you like the lions

Lie down with our pride?

And take away the blame from us

By those who try to shame us

To cover up their own shortcomings

In the rising waters of the tide


And won't those waters surround us

Abound  us and confound us

But in your immortal energies 

You will see how hard we've tried

Yet we are so weary, so weary, so weary

And on your gentle flanks now

We must lay down by your side
