Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh ladybird I have heard you wish to walk me through your garden I crave your pardon if I woke you with my thinking Ladybird [Verse 2] Oh ladybird I have heard you wish to walk me through your meadow You'll spread no wings to fly in fright if I'm beside you Ladybird [Chorus] All through the wintertime When wood was warm and splintered Time seemed longer than a goods train Now that spring is back again I'll ask your name, your name [Verse 3] Oh ladybird I have heard you wish to walk across my pillow No weeping willow was ever as beautiful, sad as you are Ladybird [Bridge] And as you're walking past I'm laying on the grass and making chains of thought To snare you with my wit But bit by bit, you fade to gone, gone [Chorus] All through the iron season Love was hanged and treason became Something of a parlor game Now sun is back in power, I'll ask your name, your name [Verse 4] Oh ladybird I have heard you have to run to tend your children No flood can drown nor fire blacken purest longing For ladybird [Outro] Ladybird Ladybird Ladybird
