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 ?

Of all we shared through yesterdays
In sorrows neverlasting.

Take a hand and take a bow
You played for me, thats 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.
