Verse 1

September seventeen
To a girl I know it's mothers day
Her son has gone alee
And that's where he will stay
Wind on the weathervane
Tearing blue eyes sailor mean
As Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
For a boy on Fiddler's Green

Verse 2

His tiny knotted heart
Well I guess it never worked too good
The timber tore apart
And the water gorged the wood
You can hear her whispered prayer
For men at masts that always lean
The same wind that moves her hair
Moves her boy through Fiddler's Green

Chorus

Oh, nothing's changed anyway
Oh, nothing's changed anyway
Anytime today

Verse 3

He doesn't know a soul
And there's nowhere that he's really been
But he won't travel long alone
No not on Fiddler's Green
Balloons all filled with rain
As children's eyes turn sleepy mean
And Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
For a boy on Fiddler's Green
