Scythe Song lyrics

I still remember when
I first watched him work the blade
It was down in the Buckney den
my questions tumbled and he said
O this is not a thing to learn inside a day
Stand closely by me and I?ll try to show the way
CHORUS
You?ve got to hold it right
feel the distance to the ground
Move with a touch so light
until it?s rhythm you have found
Then you?ll know what I know
O wild are the ways we run
when at last untethered out we fly
Straight into the burning sun
need no direction no not I
But ii is not a thing to learn inside a day
Stand closely by me and I?ll try to show the way
CHORUS
So little dancing girl
you want to play a tune
One that your heart can fill
to help you shine under the moon
Well it is not a thing to learn inside a day
Stand closely by me and I?ll try to show the way
You?ve got to hold it right
feel the distance to the sound
Move with a touch so light
until it?s rhythm you have found
Then you?ll know what I know now
