Flora's Holiday

Stop your labour come this way
For this is Flora's holiday
The sheep in the meadow are hard at play
This day will be yours

If you ask me of now of then
The words have changed, but the song's the same
A heart will beat or fade away
Laughter has never changed
The poet must still rearrange
While lovers dream, this is their day

Rise you children come this way
For this is Flora's holiday
Time to laugh and time to play
For music and dance

If you ask me why don't we now
Stare as long as sheep or cow
Or see the world as once we thought it was
I will tell you to close your eyes
It's only then you'll realise
The answer's not in why or because

If you ask me of now of then
The words have changed, but the song's the same
A heart will beat or fade away
Laughter has never changed
The poet must still rearrange
While lovers dream, this is their day

Sleep you children where you lay
For that was Flora's holiday
