words and music: John Lambert
it was one of those winter days
where it was cold and clear
and there was mist laying in bottom of the valleys
it was really the most magical moment
just ten minutes of silence in the woods
with twenty, maybe thirty people
all standing around being absolutely quiet
just the sounds of nature
just sounds that could have been
it was a scene that could have been from a thousand years ago
horses and people, in the woods
and everybody was absolutely quiet
listening for the hounds
and to hear where they were
right across the top of hameldown
down into the dart valley
then back up
suddenly you were there
and you were once again
as free as you could be
the ending of a time
that would never come again
