Slainte Mhath (De Montfort Hall Leicester 24th April 1990) - Marillion[00:00:00]
A hand held over a candle in angst fuelled bravado[00:00:49]
A carbon trail scores a moist stretched palm[00:00:55]
Trapped in the indecision of another fine menu[00:01:01]
And you sit there[00:01:07]
And ask me to tell you the story so far[00:01:08]
This is the story so far[00:01:12]
Shuffling your memories dealing your doodles in margins[00:01:23]
You scrawl out your poems across a beermat or two[00:01:29]
And when you declare the point of grave creation[00:01:36]
They turn round and you to tell them the story so far[00:01:41]
This is the story so far[00:01:47]
And you listen with a tear in you eye[00:01:53]
To their hopes and betrayals and your only reply[00:01:59]
Is Slàinte Mhath[00:02:04]
Princes in exile raising the standard Drambuie[00:02:18]
Parading their anecdotes tired from old campaigns[00:02:24]
Holding their own last orders commanding attention[00:02:30]
We sit here and listen to all of the story so far[00:02:36]
This is the story so far[00:02:41]
Take me away[00:02:48]
Take me away[00:02:51]
Take me away[00:02:54]
Take me away[00:02:57]
Take me away[00:02:59]
Take me away[00:03:00]
Take me away[00:03:02]
Take me away[00:03:03]
From the dream on the barbed wire at Flanders and Bilston Glen[00:03:14]
From a Clydeside that rusts from the tears of its broken men[00:03:19]
From the realisation that all we've been left behind[00:03:24]
Is to stand like our fathers before us in the firing line[00:03:30]
Waiting on the whistle to blow[00:03:36]
We stand here waiting on the whistle to blow[00:03:40]
They promised us miracles and the whistle still blows[00:03:46]
Broken promises but the whistle still blows[00:03:52]
Waiting on the wistle to blow[00:03:54]
We stand here waiting on the wistle to blow[00:03:58]
We stand here waiting on the wistle to blow[00:04:02]
