I met them on drive thru where I worked they just finished a gig at Jerry's pizza came by I said and also the trees we talked they gave me a demo I still have
The old man's come to see The way the land lies over Come to see the way the clouds roll. He wants to know if cowslips still grow On the hill where he kissed his girl And if the sky turns just the same When the wind blows from the west Above the old town in the distance And the village in the field. He wants to see the graveyard by the church And watch the clock and see the boys Throwing stones at the skylarks Just the way they were. The old man's come to see The way the trees fall on the land with the sunset And smell the grass as it blows through the fields. The old man's come to see The way the land lies beneath the sky. He wants to know if the rain that falls is just the same And the way the clouds stretch open And hang there like a veil. And the ocean to the north It sings the same song and turns From blue-grey into green. The old man's come to see The way the land lies beneath the sky To watch the shadows of the clouds racing by.
Why did i not know about this? I have owned Virus Meadow for years but never really looked any further than that and their first album. Well, i deserve a slap for that unacceptable behaviour. I`m actually annoyed i never listened to more of their music ^_^
You should get all albums of them. I have all 12 studio albums of them and they're my #1 favourite band. Their first album (1984) is my least favourite of them but still very good. I love the often rural atmospheres.
I own every album of this band, and each one is a masterpiece.
The old man has come to see this amazing song : )

The old man's come to see
The way the land lies over
Come to see the way the clouds roll.
He wants to know if cowslips still grow
On the hill where he kissed his girl
And if the sky turns just the same
When the wind blows from the west
Above the old town in the distance
And the village in the field.
He wants to see the graveyard by the church
And watch the clock and see the boys
Throwing stones at the skylarks
Just the way they were.

The way the trees fall on the land with the sunset
And smell the grass as it blows through the fields.

From blue-grey into green.
