{V1}
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
{V2}
Could you get behind a slow marching band?
And join together in the passing
of all we shared through yesterdays
in sorrows neverlasting
{Chorus}
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
{V2}
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 aw - ay
{Chorus}
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
remind you
remind you
