No Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] No man, no man shall travel this land 'Til the sand wash down to the sea No strand, no strand can hold its sand When the waves fan endlessly Though all I have is ransomed All I have is sold 'Til my country 'tis of thee [Verse 2] No sand, no sand in the hourglass stands Though I stand not wantonly No hand, no hand shall tarry this hand 'Til that man shall marry me Though all I have is silver All I have is gold 'Tis the source and not sorcery [Verse 3] To understand the talisman And the clan of mystery The forest stand, the wedding band Without apostrophe Though all my days are numbered All my stories told The riddle still is thee
