"Roosting Time" lyrics

"Roosting Time"

There's an owl in the field
At roosting time
That sits and waits till it's dark
Then he strikes
At small field mice
Shrews and wrens and grouse

There's an owl in the field
At roosting time
That sits and waits till it's dark
Then he strikes
At small field mice
Shrews and wrens and grouse

So take my hand
We'll disappear to a pub that's not too far from here
Though you don't know me but I sure know you
Please allow me to take you through
There's room for us at any age
So just think of this as a second stage
And they'll fall in love with you for sure
And your heart will sink to leave the tour
Don't shed a tear, don't be afraid
'Cause we'll soon be near, we'll soon be safe
And I'm holding you all the way
For a brand new life that starts today
