Album:

Broadsword and the Beast

Would you join a slow marching band? 
And take pleasure in your leaving 
as the ferry sails and tears are dried 
and cows come home at evening. 


Could you get behind a slow marching band? 
And join together in the passing 
of all we shared through yesterdays 
in sorrows neverlasting. 


Take a hand and take a bow. 
You played for me; that's all for now, oh, and never 
mind the words just hum along and keep on going. 
Walk on slowly --- don't look behind you. 
Don't say goodbye, love. I won't remind you. 


Dream of me as the nights draw cold 
still marking time through Winter. 
You paid the piper and called the tune 
and you marched the band away. 


Take a hand and take a bow. 
You played for me; that's all for now, oh, and never 
mind the words just hum along and keep on going. 
Walk on slowly --- don't look behind you. 
Don't say goodbye, love. I won't remind you.
