jethro tull – the silver cord lyrics
“do you still see me even here?”
(the silver cord lies on the ground.)
“and so i’m dead'”, the young man said
over the hill (not a wish away).
my friends (as one) all stand aligned
although their taxis came too late.
there was a rush along the fulham road.
there was a hush in the p-ssion play.
such a sense of glowing in the aftermath
ripe with rich attainments all imagined
sad misdeeds in disarray
the sore thumb screams aloud,
echoing out of the p-ssion play.
all the old familiar choruses come crowding in a different key:
melodies decaying in sweet dissonance.
there was a rush along the fulham road
into the ever-p-ssion play.
and who comes here to wish me well?
a sweetly-scented angel fell.
she laid her head upon my disbelief
and bathed me with her ever-smile.
and with a howl across the sand
i go escorted by a band of gentlemen in leather bound
no-one (but someone to be found).
