Daylight by Woods of Birnam Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come away, come away, death
And in sad cypress let me be laid;
Fly away, fly away, breath;
I am slain by a fair cruel maid
Stuck all with yew no one so true

[Hook]
The daylight
Your fair shade
An overcoat of shame

In dead night
So darkly bright
O come away, I'm slain

[Verse 2]
All days are darkened nights
To see till I see thee
And nights are all bright days
When dreams do show thee me
[Hook]
The daylight
Your fair shade
An overcoat of shame

In dead night
So darkly bright
O come away, I'm slain
