Beneath, Between & Behind (Glasgow, UK, June 1980) Songtext
Ten score years ago, defeat the kingly foe
A wondrous dream came into being
Tame the trackless waste, no virgin land left chaste
All shining eyes, but never seeing
Beneath the noble bird, between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high they sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
The guns replace the plow, facades are tarnished now
The principles have been betrayed
The dreams′s gone stale, but still, let hope prevail
History's debt won′t be repaid
Beneath the noble bird, between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high they sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
A wondrous dream came into being
Tame the trackless waste, no virgin land left chaste
All shining eyes, but never seeing
Beneath the noble bird, between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high they sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
The guns replace the plow, facades are tarnished now
The principles have been betrayed
The dreams′s gone stale, but still, let hope prevail
History's debt won′t be repaid
Beneath the noble bird, between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high they sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
