Let me rock you in my arms

I'll hold you safe and small

A refugee from the seraphim

In your rich-girl rags and all

Did your dreams die young, were they too hard won

Did you reach too high and fall

And there is no rest for the ones God blessed

And he blessed you best of all

Your eyes seem from a different face

They've seen that much that soon

Your cheek too cold, too pale to shine

Like an old and waning moon

And there is no peace, no true release

No secret place to crawl

And there is no rest for the ones God blessed

And he blessed you best of all

If tears unshed could heal your heart

If words unsaid could sway

Then watch you melt into the night

Adieu, and rue the day

Did your dreams die young, were they too hard won

Did you reach too high and fall

And there is no rest for the ones God blessed

And he blessed you best of all

This song is how I learned of Mr. Thompson's music. There is a cover of this song on "Adieu False Heart," a Linda Ronstadt/Ann Savoy Album. I heard that and had to search for the author. Never before have I discovered such a gold mine of great music. Well, maybe once before when I learned about Chris Smither from a cover of "Visions of Johanna." Anyhow, I'm happy to finally see a video of Richard Thompson doing this song - Thanks!

Thank you for posting this..thank you Richard for writing this ..Truly a parent's lament of watching your grown children go through great difficulties in their lives. I believe I read somewhere that Richard wrote this for his daughter when she was going through a hard time in her life. Once your a parent the worst pain you can feel is when your children are hurt..no matter how old they are. This song could be for anyone you care about going through hard times..

Never seen him use that Lowden. Man I hate how tramps are supposed to represent things in films. A million film school shorts = at least 750,000 tramps.

This is 1 of RT's gems, like Beeswing, the more you hear it the better it gets.

I first heard this excellent song on the album Adieu False Heart by Linda Ronstadt and Ann Savoy. Their version (with Linda singing lead) impressed me, so I came looking for it on YouTube. Thanks for posting it.

I caught his solo live show in Austin two nights ago. It was one of those rare and special musical events I will always remember. This song was one of the show's highlights for me.

RT is, quite, simply, one of the great musical geniuses of our era: poetic, melodic, soulful. I don't have words capable of describing his talent and contribution to our times.
