| | Grantchester meadows Lyrics Artist(Band):Pink Floyd
This is not your domain In the sky a bird was heard to cry Misty morning whisperings And gentle stirring sounds Belied the deathly silence That lay all around. Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox Gone to ground See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water And a river of green is sliding Unseen beneath the trees Laughing as it passes Through the endless summer Making for the sea In the lazy water meadow I lay me down. All around me golden sunflakes Settle on the ground. Basking in the sunshine Of a bygone afternoon Bringing sounds of yesterday Into this city room Hear the lark and harken To the barking of the dog fox Gone to ground See the splashing Of the kingfisher flashing to the water And a river of green is sliding Unseen beneath the trees Laughing as it passes Through the endless summer Making for the sea In the lazy water meadow I lay me down All around me golden sunflakes Covering the ground Basking in the sunshine Of a bygone afternoon Bringing sounds of yesterday Into my city room. Hear the lark and harken To the barking of the dog fox Gone to ground See the splashing Of the kingfisher flashing to the water And a river of green is sliding Unseen beneath the trees Laughing as it passes Through the endless summer Making for the sea If you find some error in Grantchester meadows Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?

Review about Grantchester meadows Overlooked | Reviewer: Anonymous | 11/20/2008 This song is generally overlooked by all but the hardest core of floyd fans. Although the band themselves are on the record declaiming the studio portion of Ummagumma, this is one of the gems. If you've ever had the chance to see the KQED 1970 footage of Gilmour and Waters performing this song, it is simply amazing. The friction between the two that came later is no where evident and they nail the song as the quiet peaceful ethereal piece that it is. Folk from the Floyd | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/20/2008 This is pure Folk music from the early Floyd days. Disagreeing with the previous review, I wouldn't say this was a particularly LSD-influenced song - it simply evokes the atmosphere of Grantchester meadows, a rural tranquil area near Cambridge where Gilmour and Barret grew up. Waters wrote and performed it all himself - its a lost floyd Gem. Classic Floyd | Reviewer: K | 5/1/2005 This is my favorite song of all times. For those in the know, this sums up the positive psychedelic experience very nicely. The Endless Summer, laughing rivers of green.. It's the LSD experience, the day after.. when every question has been answered, the mind storms have stopped and you know beyond the shadow of a doubt the will of god.
