Lyrics for 'Raglan Road' by 'Van Morrison'
On Raglan Road On An Autumn Day,
I Saw Her First And Knew
That Her Dark Hair Would Weave A Snare
That I May One Day Rue.
I Saw The Danger, Yet I Walked
Along The Enchanted Way
And I Said Let Grief Be A Falling Leaf
At The Dawning Of The Day.

On Grafton Street In November,
We Tripped Lightly Along The Ledge
Of A Deep Ravine Where Can Be Seen
The Worst Of Passions Pledged.
The Queen Of Hearts Still Baking Tarts
And I Not Making Hay,
Well I Loved Too Much; By Such And Such
Is Happiness Thrown Away.

I Gave Her The Gifts Of The Mind.
I Gave Her The Secret Sign
That's Known To All The Artists Who Have
Known True Gods Of Sound And Time.
With Word And Tint I Did Not Stint.
I Gave Her Reams Of Poems To Say
With Her Own Dark Hair And Her Own Name There
Like The Clouds Over Fields Of May.

On A Quiet Street Where Old Ghosts Meet,
I See Her Walking Now Away From Me,
So Hurriedly. My Reason Must Allow,
For I Have Wooed, Not As I Should
A Creature Made Of Clay.
When The Angel Woos The Clay, He'll Lose
His Wings At The Dawn Of The Day.
