Jack Hare Live by Talis Kimberley Lyrics

[Verse:]
I am born of the Moon and her I serve
I am her earthly messenger
I run in the shadow of her and by her will
I run to the sound of a drum, over land, under hill

[Chorus:]
Jack Hare, Jack Hare, there's an errand to be done
Take this jewel to the Lord of the Sun
'Cause I know you're swift and I know you're cunning
And I need you, Jack Hare, to do the running

Whoo!

[Verse:]
Oh I'm a fan of running like a mad thing, hey
While morning rubs the sleep from tired eyes I'm away, hey
[?] again but I can't stop now
Lick the [?] from the honeycomb, I'm over hill, under cloud

[Chorus:]
Jack Hare, Jack Hare, there's an errand to be done
Take this jewel to the Lord of the Sun
'Cause I know you're swift and I know you're cunning
And I need you, Jack Hare, to do the running
[Verse:]
"What's your dream?" ask gold and green
"You might try looking behind the rain"
So Jack jumps high as a hare can try
But the higher he got, the further the sun became

[Verse:]
And the Moon danced out of step
"Oh lady, lady you're not where you should have been"
Such a [?] he gives
And all the creatures of the night were in her screen

[Verse:]
There is a fiddler man in the back of a [?] who makes daisies grow
He says "I need the practical man" so off I go
But the practical man wants hare for tea, I have to jump again
Newton pulls a string or two, and I'm over sea, out of flame

[Chorus:]
Jack Hare, Jack Hare, there's an errand to be done
Take this jewel to the Lord of the Sun
'Cause I know you're swift and I know you're cunning
And I need you, Jack Hare, to do the running

[Verse:]
Not long now till Sun will set, I've miles and miles to travel yet
Run so fast [?] fast [?] free, [?] Newton's gravity
[?] long ago towards the Sun, fast as ever a hare could run
I bear my lady's sacred trust: I have to reach the Sun, I must...
[Verse:]
Oh great Lord Sun I bear a gift
From a lady pure and true
And it is the answer to a riddle
I shall tell to you...

[Chorus:]
Oh, Jack Hare, Jack Hare, there's an errand to be done
Take this jewel to the Lord of the Sun
'Cause I know you're swift and I know you're cunning
And I need you, Jack Hare, to do the running

[Outro:]
Oh Jack Hare, Jack Hare, there's an errand to be done
Take this jewel to the Lord of the Sun
'Cause I know you're swift and I know you're cunning
And I need you, Jack Hare
I need you, Jack Hare
I need you, Jack Hare
To do the running
