lyrics

Talk to me of woodpeckers and bluebells
Talk to me of home and Shipley Glen
On these dark winter days
I would see them again
I would wrap these ties of friendship
Round a bunch of daffodils
Don’t talk to me of yesterday
Talk to me of bluebells

Look at the woodpeckers and bluebells
I am feeling stronger now
And the cotton grass grows
Up on the moor brow
I would walk through these beechwoods
Down to the old canal
Don’t talk about tomorrow
Just watch the bluebells

Take these woodpeckers and bluebells
Store them in a song
For when your heart feels empty
And the days seem so long
Drink from this beaker of memories
As you wander over the hills
And hear the distant woodpecker
Sing to me of bluebells
