    THE GARDEN OF ENGLAND (SEEDS OF LOVE) Lyrics
    We sowed the seeds of love
    We showed them how to sing
    Grown with a knowing of something in their blood
    Where ceremony begins
    When the apron string unpinned
    My garden was forsook
    To weigh in on industry
    Raised beyond the altar, under oak and ash
    I grew to a bony rowan tree
    Freely in my own country
    But some oak trees won’t twist
    For they’re brittle beneath the bark
    Better that limbs be broke and brought to ground
    And service the light to dark
    We’re just servants unto the dark
    For the gatekeeper can’t stand by
    For they must be bound to be free
    Lightworking the liminal, listening to the land
    Fingering at mystery
    Not Sally, fee and easy
    Oh grief, oh grief have I
    For the songs they go to decay
    The garden of England once bloomed it’s sound assault
    Now destined for some bouquet
    No roses in this display
    For the rose it bore a thorn
    A spritz of wilful spark
    But taming its temper to never pierce the palm
    We’ll never touch the heart, the heart
    No poison tip to the dart
    We sowed the seeds of love
    We showed them how to sing
    Grown with a knowing of wildness in their blood
    More than the sum of the everything
    The old wow never wears thin...
    Sweet as the birds in the spring
    Home is when the heart sings
    The songs that tell of our own kith and kin
    The old wow never wears thin...
    Out of decay new life springs
    As the anima sheds its own skin
    While this pebble rolls its big rings
    The old wow never wears thin
    The old wow never wears thin
    Some of my favourite things
    The old wow never wears thin

    I heard this song on Mojo Rocks with Phil Alexander, his show on Planet Rock. I thought it was a wonderful folk song from years gone by until Phil said it was from last year, God is in this song.
