Slow Marching Band

Would you join a slow marching band?

And take pleasure in your leaving

As the ferry sails and tears are dried

And cows come home at evening.



Could you get behind a slow marching band?

And join together in the passing

Of all we shared through yesterdays

In sorrows neverlasting.



Take a hand and take a bow.

You played for me; that's all for now, oh, and never

Mind the words just hum along and keep on going.

Walk on slowly --- don't look behind you.

Don't say goodbye, love. i won't remind you.



Dream of me as the nights draw cold

Still marking time through winter.

You paid the piper and called the tune

And you marched the band away.



Take a hand and take a bow.

You played for me; that's all for now, oh, and never

Mind the words just hum along and keep on going.

Walk on slowly --- don't look behind you.

Don't say goodbye, love. i won't remind you.
