Cliff Richard - Wild Geese lyrics
[Cliff Richard - Wild Geese lyrics]
Look at the golden dawn see the sunset
On the silver thorn just remember
It was all for you and me
High on the ragged hill he was dying
And he's dying still oh my Lord
You were born to set men free
And the mission bells are ringing
As the prisoner finds release
And the love we knew is returning
Like wild geese
And the signal fires are burning
For the everlasting peace
And the love we knew is returning
Like wild geese
Only the closest heart
Could believe that love's a dying art
After all the hungry mouths he fed
Eyes on the gentle one
Looked for the kindness
But they gave him none not a sip of wine
Or a crust of bread
On the silver thorn just remember
It was all for you and me
High on the ragged hill he was dying
And he's dying still oh my Lord
You were born to set men free
And the mission bells are ringing
As the prisoner finds release
And the love we knew is returning
Like wild geese
And the signal fires are burning
For the everlasting peace
And the love we knew is returning
Like wild geese
Only the closest heart
Could believe that love's a dying art
After all the hungry mouths he fed
Eyes on the gentle one
Looked for the kindness
But they gave him none not a sip of wine
Or a crust of bread
