Autumn Rain

I THOUGHT THE DELUGE WOULD NEVER CEASE

WHEN THE HEAVENS OPENED IT DID RELEASE

SUCH ENDLESS RAIN I HAD NEVER SEEN

THAT AUTUMN RAIN AND A TRAITOR'S SCHEME

BUCKINGHAM'S BETRAYAL IN OCTOBER

A REBELLION SO QUICKLY OVER

THE MOST UNTRUE CREATURE LIVING

RICHARD'S ANGER SO UNFORGIVING

I THOUGHT THE DELUGE WOULD NEVER CEASE

WHEN THE HEAVENS OPENED IT DID RELEASE

SUCH ENDLESS RAIN I HAD NEVER SEEN

THAT AUTUMN RAIN AND A TRAITOR'S SCHEME

TO HENRY'S SHIP WE DID SHOUT

WE TRIED TO TEMPT THE TUDOR OUT

HIS FLEET SCATTERED BY THE STORM

HIS OWN VESSEL LOOKED SO FORLORN

AUTUMN RAIN. AUTUMN RAIN

AUTUMN RAIN. AUTUMN RAIN

AUTUMN RAIN. AUTUMN RAIN

AUTUMN RAIN

I THOUGHT THE DELUGE WOULD NEVER CEASE

WHEN THE HEAVENS OPENED IT DID RELEASE

SUCH ENDLESS RAIN I HAD NEVER SEEN

THAT AUTUMN RAIN AND A TRAITOR'S SCHEME

AS I RECALL THE SKY WAS GREY

FOR BUCKINGHAM ON THAT DAY

EXECUTED IN SALISBURY

HE'D BETRAYED KING RICHARD QUITE DREADFULLY
