C D G I walked in my great coat, down through the days of leaves C D G No before, after, yes, after before C D We were shining our light into G the days of blooming wonder C D G In the eternal presence, in the presence of D the flame Chorus: G D/F# Em G/B C Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder? G D/F# Em G/B C Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright? G D/F# Em G/B C Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder G in the flame? On and on and on we kept singing our song Through Newtonards and Comber, Gransha and the Ballystockart Road With Spike and Boffyflow, I said I would describe the leaves for Samuel and Felicity Rich, red browney, half burnt orange and green Chorus Em Bm It's easy to describe the leaves in the Autumn Em Bm And it's oh so easy in the Spring Em Bm But down through January and February Am D It's a very different thing On and on and on, through the winter of our discontent When the wind blows up the collar and the ears are frostbitten too I said I could describe the leaves for Samuel and what it means to you and me You may call my love Sophia, but I call my love Philosophy Chorus: Oh, didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder? Oh, didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright? Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame? Didn't I, didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder? Oh, didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright? Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder in the flame? (In the flame) In the flame, child (Didn't I come to bring you) A sense of wonder in the flame (Didn't I come to bring you) In the flame, child (Didn't I come to bring you) Wee Alfie at the Castle Picturehouse on the Castlereagh Road Whistling on the corner next door Where he kept Johnny Mack Brown's horse "O solo mio" by McGimsey And the man who played the saw outside the city hall Pastie suppers down at Davy's chipper Gravy rings, wagon wheels, barmbracks, snowballs A sense of wonder (Didn't I come to bring you) A sense of wonder (Didn't I come to bring you) (Didn't I come to bring you) A sense of wonder (Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?) (Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?) (Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?) (Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?)
