In the Mourning

In the Mourning
(Blair Babcock/Trish Schnurr)

She stands in the morning
On the banks of the shore
Her dear love departed
Now three days before

Her songs for tomorrow
All sung yesterday
Now she sings songs of sorrow
For love gone away

(Chorus)
She stands on the banks of the Avon
The winds they cry and they moan
She grieves for her dear love departed to soon
To have and to hold never more

Sun rise in the east
Shines light all the day
But the sun doesn’t shine
For Ms Molly McRae

Church bells toll sorrow
Melancholy in tone
And they sing one last song
For dear Sheamus Malone

(Chorus)

She stands in mourning
On the banks of the shore
