Take Us Back |
| Atop the crags and cliffs the air is thin |
| So we’ll find a mountain path on down the hill |
| Meet me where the snowmelts flows |
| It is there, my dear, where we’ll begin again |
| Skipping stones, braiding hair |
| Last years antlers mark the trail |
| Take us back, Oh! |
| take us back, Oh! |
| take us: Take us back! |
| Take us back, Oh! |
| take us back, Oh! |
| take us: Take us back! |
| I’ve a friend who lives out by the rivers mouth |
| He knows the fiddle’s cry is an old sound |
| A lonesome bow, the creaks and moans of empty houses |
| Are songs like falling rain |
| Wind blown buildings, muddy ground |
| The strength of water can sink a man |
| Take us back, Oh! |
| take us back, Oh! |
| take us: Take us back! |
| Take us back, Oh! |
| take us back, Oh! |
| take us: Take us back! |
| When the higher hills have turned to blue |
| And the waves are lapping where the children grew |
| All that we have known will be an echo |
| Of days when love was true |
| Muted voices, just beyond |
| The silent surface of what has gone |
