Ah
Ah

Sure as the Sun rises
Shadows skipping west to east
Through the winding canyons
And fizzy mountain streams

That's the sound of the dead dancing
That's the song of life

Ah

Sure as shepherd's warning
Goes unheeded time again
Do the crossroads whisper
To what might have been?

Soon, the days remembered
Will outnumber those to come
For love now and lasting
Let the fire rage on

That's the sound of the dead dancing
That's the sound of days gone by
That's the sound of the forest bеnding
That's the song of life

Ah

As the milеs stretch further
And time gets hard to catch
The fireflies of summer
Yield to winter's breadth

Sure as spirits wander
Through the fields and riverside
Keep the porch light on
And a friend will always be nearby

That's the sound of a baby crying
That's the sound of days to come
That's the sound of the surface cracking

That's the sound of the dead dancing
That's the sound of days gone by
That's the sound of the forest bending
That's the song of life

Ah
