She came to me one morning
One lonely Sunday morning
Her long hair flowing
in the midwinter wind
I know not how she found me
When in darkness I was walking
Destruction lay around me
from the fight I could not win
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
She asked me name my foe then
I said the need within some men
To fight and kill their brothers
without thought of man or God
And I begged her give me horses
To trample down my enemies
So eager was my passion
to devour this waste of life
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
But she wouldn't think
of battle that
Reduces men to animals
So easy to begin and
yet impossible to end
For she's the mother of all men
Who counselled me
so wisely then
I feared to walk alone
again and asked if she would stay
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
Oh lady lend your hand outright
And let me rest here at your side
Have faith and trust in me
she said and filled
my heart with life
There is no strength in numbers
I know of such misconceptions
But when you need me be assured
I won't be far away
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
Thus having spoke
she turned away
And though I found no words to say
I stood and watched until
I saw her black coat disappear
My labour is no easier
But now I know I'm not alone
I'll find new heart each time
I think upon that windy day
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
Ah haha haha haha
Ah haha haha
She came to me one morning
One lonely Sunday morning
Her long hair flowing
in the midwinter wind
And if one day she comes to you
Drink deeply from her words so wise
Take courage from her
as your prize and say Hello for me
