hey-yah My love has gone all upon the crimson trail His drum at dawn beating brimstone through the veil Clear light through smoke and ash And balmy seas, where breakers crash and roll Gentle soldier of my soul Hey-yah Hey-yah He lays me down in his garden growin' bed He weaves a crown, twigs and feathers for my head He sings the fields awake And folds me in the love that makes me whole Gentle soldier of my soul Hey-yah Hey-yah Hey-yah Hey-yah Hey-yah Hey-yah When I have passed through the forest of my trials And stand at last where the shadows run for miles We'll ride on ponies fine With painted shields through fields of shining gold Gentle soldier of my soul Hey-yah Hey-yah Hey-yah
