Blue Rodeo
Phaedra’s Meadow
[Verse 1]
I was walking through the forest
One cold and dreary morn
My heart sick with jealousy
And memories I need no more
No, I could never kill a man
But I would do him harm
Knowing that you're there
Lying in his arms

[Verse 2]
My flesh was ripped and torn
By the bramble and the thorn
I was lost but well-prepared
To offer up my soul
Because the greater misery
Is to live with what I know

[Verse 3]
The moon concealed by April's storm
No bearing I could find
Until I fell into a clearing
And a road I recognized
I was far, far from my home
Further from her smile
Not sure if I would return
Or just lay down and die
[Chorus]
As I stood in Phaedra's Meadow
Well, the dawn did break the sky
And from the highest up in Heaven
The weaving star fell into my eyes
As I stood in Phaedra's Meadow
Well, the dawn did break the sky
And from the highest up in Heaven
The weaving star fell into my eyes
