Never To Grow Weary

from Waterside [full album] by Traditional Graffiti

/

about

Written originally for my oldest friend, now living in Canberra, Australia. And the song grew into a general wish for everybody.

lyrics

D G D
WHEN THE FROST IS WHITE AS DEATH
D A
WHEN THE COLD RAIN DRENCHES
D G A
CHILDREN PLAY WITH FOGGY BREATH
D G A
OLD FOLK GUARD THE BENCHES
D G D
MAY YOUR HEART BE FILLED OF JOY
D A
MAY YOUR MOOD BE CHEERY – O
D G A
MAY YOU LIKE THE RIVER RUN
D G A D
NEVER TO GROW WEARY -O


SHOULD YOUR ROAD BE HARD TO ROAM
SHOULD YOUR NIGHTS BE FROZEN
MAY YOU NEVER WALK ALONE
MAY EVERY DOOR BE OPEN

MAY YOUR DAYS BE FILLED WITH SONG
HAPPINESS AND LAUGHTER
AND EVERY CLOUD THAT FOLLOWS YOU
SUNSHINE FOLLOW AFTER

MAY YOUR SUMMER DAYS BE LONG
FULL OF SUN SHINE YELLOW
MAY YOUR BED BE DEEP AND WARM
MAY YOUR NIGHTS BE MELLOW

MAY YOUR CHILDREN MAKE YOU PROUD
WITH EV’RY ENDEAVOUR,
MAY YOU SING THEIR PRAISES LOUD
CRITICISE THEM NEVER
