Slainte Mhath (Cumbria Rock Festival) - Marillion[00:00:01]
A hand held over a candle[00:00:45]
In angst fuelled bravado[00:00:47]
A carbon trail scores a moist[00:00:51]
Stretched palm[00:00:55]
Trapped in the indecision[00:00:58]
Of another fine menu[00:01:00]
Sit down[00:01:04]
And ask me to tell you[00:01:04]
The story so far[00:01:06]
This is the story so far[00:01:09]
Shuffling your memories[00:01:20]
Dealing your doodles in margins[00:01:21]
You scrawl out your poems[00:01:26]
Across a beermat or two[00:01:27]
And when you declare[00:01:32]
The point of grave creation[00:01:33]
They turn round and ask you[00:01:38]
To tell them the story so far[00:01:40]
This is the story so far[00:01:44]
And you listen[00:01:50]
With a tear in your eye[00:01:53]
To their hopes and betrayals[00:01:56]
And your only reply[00:01:59]
Is Slainte Mhath[00:02:02]
Princes in exile raising[00:02:15]
The standard Drambuie[00:02:17]
Parading their anecdotes[00:02:21]
Tired from old campaigns[00:02:23]
Holding their own last orders[00:02:28]
Commanding attention[00:02:30]
As we sit here and listen[00:02:33]
To all of the story so far[00:02:35]
This is the story so far[00:02:39]
Take me away [00:02:46]
Take me away [00:02:55]
Take me away[00:02:57]
Take me away [00:02:58]
Take me away [00:03:00]
Take me away[00:03:01]
From the dream[00:03:12]
On the barbed wire[00:03:13]
At Flanders and Bilston Glen[00:03:14]
From a Clydeside[00:03:18]
That rusts from the tears[00:03:19]
Of its broken men[00:03:21]
To the realisation[00:03:24]
That all of we've been left behind[00:03:25]
Is to stand like our fathers[00:03:30]
Before us in the firing line[00:03:31]
Waiting on the whistle to blow[00:03:36]
We stand here waiting[00:03:41]
On the whistle to blow[00:03:43]
They promised us miracles [00:03:46]
And the whistle still blows[00:03:50]
Broken promises[00:03:53]
But the whistle still blows[00:03:55]
Waiting on the whistle to blow[00:03:59]
We stand here waiting[00:04:04]
On the whistle to blow[00:04:07]
