Have a Day Shorter (Vocal Session) (feat. Solala)

The poplars are fell'd
Farewell to the shade
And the whispering sound
Of the cool colonnade
Winds play no longer
And sing in the leaves
Have a day shorter
And die sooner than we

Twelve years ago
Since I last took view
Of my favorite field
And the banks where they grew
And now in the grass
Behold they are laid
Have a day shorter
And die sooner than we

Sooner than we
Sooner than we
Have a day shorter
And die sooner than we

How they sing in the leaves

The blackbird has fled
To another retreat
Where the hazels afford him
A screen from the heat

The scene where his melody
Charmed me before
Have a day shorter
And die sooner than we

My fugitive years
Are all hasting away
And I must e'er long lie low
I must e'er long lie low
I must e'er long lie lowly
With a turf on my chest
And a stone at my head
Have a day shorter
And die sooner than we

Sooner than we
Sooner than we
Have a day shorter
And die sooner than we
Sooner than we
Sooner than we
Have a day shorter
And die sooner than we
