BEFORE THIS WORLD/JOLLY SPRINGTIME - JAMES TAYLOR
"Before This World"(2015)
Before this wo
rld was as we
know it now
Before the lan
d and sea were
formed at all
Before the sta
rs were made t
o burn and shi
ne
Little love of
mine, darling
one
Who can preten
d to understan
d at all
No one can bot
h inside and o
utside be
Who can suppos
e he knows the
way this goes
Oh, little la
mb, never mind
So let us love
and let us no
t delay
The world is o
ld and it will
never last
Our share of j
oy is in this
moment past
Will you come
away, (come aw
/
ay) come aw
ay
Fall into Jesu
s baby chil
d
Give up the lo
ve that takes
and breaks you
r heart
Let go the wei
ght of all tha
t holds you he
re
Little love of
mine, (love o
f mine) darlin
g one
Oh the jolly s
pringtime
Oh, in the mer
ry month of Ma
y
Oh the heavenl
y hours
Oh the come ag
ain day
Oh the jolly s
pringtime
In the merry m
onth of May
Oh the heavenl
y hours
Oh the come ag
ain day
Let the day ru
n long
Let the river
run high
That tomorrow
may live
So must yester
day die
Let the resin
risin' up in t
he tree
Make the green
leaf bud
The bird and t
he bee and the
fish in the s
ea
Feeling it in
my blood
Oh the jolly s
pringtime
In the merry m
onth of May
Oh the heavenl
y hours
Oh the come ag
ain day
Yes the winter
was bitter an
d long
So the spring'
ll be sweet
Come along wit
h a rhythm and
a song
Watch creation
repeat
Thin, thin, th
e moment is th
in
Ever so narrow
the now
Everybody say,
"got to live
in today"
Don't nobody k
now how
Oh the jolly s
pringtime
In the merry m
onth of May
Oh the heavenl
y hours
Oh the come ag
ain day
Oh the jolly s
pringtime
In the merry m
onth of May
Oh the heavenl
y hours
Oh the come ag
ain day
