lyrics

“Oak and Ivy”
Words & Music by Timothy Walsh

He don’t go there. He don’t wander where the spirits tell him no.
It’s in a valley full of mist where people do not go.

And in the forest grapevines twine slowly up the trees
and choke the oaks by blanketing their green, green canopies.

Oak and ivy, oak and ivy now… (It’s what the poets always wrote.)
Only ivy twists love around…
like you’re doing to me sometimes.

Chloe goes there. Chloe knows the way to the secret forest.
Something draws her, something calls today, so she cuts the vines away.

Now the oaks bask in the light, and she sleeps in shade till dusk.
Then she wanders through the night, a wood spirit in the trees.

Sometimes people don’t seem to see me, suffocating in our mass delusion.
We all think the world was made for us.
When I’m walking in the forest, far from peoples’ muffled chorus,
then I can feel my destiny.

When I see her walking out at night, when the moon is all aglow,
her eyes are burning with delight, and I know that she will go….

Penelope's Thrill Madison, Wisconsin

Penelope's Thrill is a lucky accident. Lured out of musical retirement by son Andrew, Timothy Walsh dusted off his guitars, including his favorite vintage Guilds and Gretsches, and picked up where he left off 25 years ago playing in garage bands in New Jersey and Boston.
Tim founded Penelope's Thrill as the vehicle for his songs, often pulling in other musicians for particular tracks. ... more
