about

Our adaptation of Thomas Hardy's poem 'I Found Her Out There' from upcoming EP Lullabies for an Apocalypse.

lyrics

I found her out there
On a slope few see,
That falls westwardly
To the salt-edged air,
Where the ocean breaks
On the purple strand,
And the hurricane shakes
The solid land.

I brought her here,
And have laid her to rest
In a noiseless nest
No sea beats near.
She will never be stirred
In her loamy cell
By the waves long heard
And loved so well.

I found her out there
I found her out there

So she does not sleep
By those haunted heights
The Atlantic smites
And the blind gales sweep,
Whence she often would gaze
At Dundagel's famed head,
While the dipping blaze
Dyed her face fire-red;

I found her out there
I found her out there

And she would sigh at the tale
Of sunk Lyonesse,
And wonder at whiles
With a thought-bound brow
To the murmuring miles
She is far from now.

I found her out there
I found her out there
