Paul Gordon - Lock Willow lyrics

[Jerusha Abbott] The rain in Lock Willow Comes down like tears Then a moon appears Over the meadow Here in Lock Willow A mockingbird sings With a murmur he pines his libretto I wander the hillside In silence and wonder Surrounded by wide open space I've never been free Just to wander the hillside I've only been in one place Here in Lock Willow I sit and I write By the light of my own inspiration Here in Lock Willow The sky is my muse And the lilies my standing ovation [Jervis Pendleton] I love to wander the hills I shape my character's thoughts As I go Then I watch to see which way she goes [Jerusha Abbott] I spend all my days now In thoughtful reflection Pondering poems and prose I point my protagonist In one direction Then watch to see which way she goes Here in Lock Willow I'm happy and free And I can't wait to see Who I'll grow up to be But wherever I go I feel certain to know I'll carry Lock Willow with me
