Seth Lakeman Watch Out
Watch out my love watch out
Before the trees are bare
Hear the woodlark singing on
His sad and mournful air
Watch before the dark returns
With its blasts and heavy rains
Watch out before the winter binds
The earth to icy chains
Island strangers they trouble our land
A fire waits in their eyes
Watch out when the air is sweet
And brown September's eye
Is creeping out to draw you in
Beneath its gloomy skies
Watch out my love watch out
Before the woodlark's sings
Dream a while amoung his notes
To welcome back the spring
Watch before the snows return
With its wild Atlantic skies
Feel lonely weary face
Standing by your side
Island strangers they trouble our land
A fire waits in their eyes
Watch out my love watch out
Before the woodlark's sings
Dream a while among his notes
To welcome back the spring
Watch out my love watch out
Before the trees are bare
Hear the woodlark singing on
His sad and mournful air
