Red Sky Out

[Verse 1] Red sky at night Shepherds delight Red sky at morning Shepherds warning I was born where the stone runs cold With a lantern hand and a story told When the clouds go red on the hilltop line You can feel the old world sharpen with time [Pre-Chorus] Hear that call Across the field A thousand throats Begin to yield The line grows near The air goes thin Like something holy Kicking in [Chorus] Red sky at night Shepherds delight Red sky at morning Shepherds warning Old Welsh choir Sing loud and proud Old Welsh choir Lift up the cloud The dark and demons hide Hide, hide, hide Like the angels are out to fight Out to fight [Verse 2] By the lane where the blackthorn leans I saw the dusk in the windows gleam Mothers crossed themselves at the gate Boys held still and the dogs stood straight Every heart knew the weather well Every bone heard the bell, the bell When that red burns over sheep and stone It feels like heaven comes marching home [Pre-Chorus] Hear that call Across the field A thousand throats Begin to yield The line grows near The air goes thin Like something holy Kicking in [Chorus] Red sky at night Shepherds delight Red sky at morning Shepherds warning Old Welsh choir Sing loud and proud Old Welsh choir Lift up the cloud The dark and demons hide Hide, hide, hide Like the angels are out to fight Out to fight [Bridge] Oh, let the hill answer Oh, let the stones ring Oh, let the old names Wake in the spring If the sky burns red Then I won't fear For the brave and the broken Are gathering here [Final Chorus] Red sky at night Shepherds delight Red sky at morning Shepherds warning Old Welsh choir Sing loud and proud Old Welsh choir Lift up the cloud The dark and demons hide Hide, hide, hide Like the angels are out to fight Out to fight Red sky at night Shepherds delight Red sky at morning Shepherds warning
