Taliesen
Hello and welcome, you’re here for the tour
Of the home of our gifted, beloved
It’s been here a hundred years, it’ll be here for more
You can only see it on this guided tour
And we won’t talk much about what happened here
Built horozontially into the land
Built it himself and designed it by hand
It’s been here a hundred years, it’ll be here for more
He chose it all from ceiling to floor
But we won’t talk much about what happened here.
Didn’t deserve it, though some say she did
Left a husband and children to move in with him
Hid out in Europe for almost a year
And then they returned.
It’s a home and a studio, workshop, sanctuary
The home of our gifted, beloved
‘It’s been here a hundred years, it’ll be here for more
You can only see it on this guided tour
And we won’t talk much about what happened here.
Late summer evening, one final meal
Ax falls, doors are bolted and the fire, the fire burns on
He was in Chicago doing business as usual
We don’t talk much about it here.
