Lyrics Legends and Believe in the Day - Jethro Tull

Legends and Believe in the Day

The legends worded in the ancient tribal hymn
Lie cradled in the seagull’s call
And all the promises they made
Are ground beneath the sadist’s fall
The poet and the wise man stand
Behind the gun, behind the gun
And signal for the crack of dawn
Light the sun, light the sun
Do you believe in the day?
Do you believe in the day?
The Dawn Creation of the Kings
Has begun, has begun
Soft Venus, lonely maiden brings
The ageless one, the ageless one
Do you believe in the day?
Do you believe in the day?
The fading hero has returned
To the night, to the night
And fully pregnant with the day
Wise men endorse the poet’s sight
Do you believe in the day?
Do you believe in the day?
