Mountain - Pride And Passion lyrics
rate meOne man's life passed all in needing
Words of love that want repeating.
Fathers passed to sons their craving.
Mothers loved their children saving
Kings who walk in banners waving still.
I have no heart for listening, to the men who talk of
Peace.
They're putting all their nonsense in my way.
Won't you please my love, please rest your tired little
Hands.
We've been talking half the night, and there's so much
More to say.
Mothers asking for this one more time, before their
Babies come
They're whistling in the smells of dusty tea
Someplace there's a bed of timeless loving turned to stone,
But the sun is shining yellow, and it's turned to shine
On me
Sons are breathing discontent in the circling vapour
Light
And frozen little soldiers guard their homeland through
The night
And a million nameless candles flicker out this one
Last time -
And the heartbeat in that aching crowd no it will not
Beat with mine
The answers were all given, to the faces now in tears
And heaven led us all into the war
The children who once laughed at this, would breath
Behind the song
It's the season for re-living, but they're living here no more.
Sons are breathing discontent in the circling vapour
Light
And frozen little soldiers guard their homeland through
The night
And a million nameless candles flicker out this one last time -
And the heartbeat in that aching crowd no it will not
Beat with mine
Hearts all filled of pride and passion
Sacrificed in royal nations
Stand we here in humble pleading
Save the souls who in retreating
Pray for peace and stop the bleeding now
