lyrics

Silent Drums

With the last kiss of summer on the lips of the year
The dogs lie still, the clock chimes twelve and I fear
That I'll lose myself, my hands are tied and bound,
But I know now is happening.

Have I lived my life with no lessons learnt at all,
and did I miss the starting gun I don't know,
In the anti-sceptic when the light shines in,
I know now is happening.

From the corner of the western isles to the peak of the antipodes,
We are marching to the silent drums,
Listen can you hear them?

The dew laced cobwebs decorate the fresh day in the frail dawn
And the long dark nights and the chimneys rise with the news of the season.
All our endless numbered days in a melody, lover do you believe?

From the sun rising in the east to the dawn across the Hebrides, we are marching to the silent drums, listen!
From the corner of the western isles to the peak of the antipodes,
We are marching to the silent drums,
Listen can you hear them?

Oh my love, save my soul 'cause now is happening.
