Firth of Fifth (Live in Liverpool 2015)
As daybreak breaks the mist upon the earth
it came to pass that beauty settled there forever more
and as the steam clings close to things to come
it came to pass that solid rock did part for humble life
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
now there's hope reborn with every morning
see the future clearly at its dawning
forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness
as water slips into the sea
the father's sad to see it free
As shadows creep towards their master night
it came to pass that trees defied the wind who shook their leaves
and as the peace descended all around
it came to pass that nature's creatures came to face the world
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
now there's hope reborn with every morning
see the future clearly at its dawning
forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness
as water slips into the sea
the father's sad to see it free
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
now there's hope reborn with every morning
see the future clearly at its dawning
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
it came to pass that beauty settled there forever more
and as the steam clings close to things to come
it came to pass that solid rock did part for humble life
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
now there's hope reborn with every morning
see the future clearly at its dawning
forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness
as water slips into the sea
the father's sad to see it free
As shadows creep towards their master night
it came to pass that trees defied the wind who shook their leaves
and as the peace descended all around
it came to pass that nature's creatures came to face the world
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
now there's hope reborn with every morning
see the future clearly at its dawning
forever drifting slowly towards a hazy emptiness
as water slips into the sea
the father's sad to see it free
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
now there's hope reborn with every morning
see the future clearly at its dawning
Once upon a time there was confusion
disappointment, fear and disillusion
