Gratitude Songtext

von Killing Joke

Let me tell you about the hearts of my people let me tell you of the meaning of our tribe a dream unspoken, a promised kept the secret comes alive
For all the years i've watched your back and you've watched mine we always knew the clouds would part and a golden dawn will shine
And when you find yourself alont the untrodden path remember me with a smile, a drink, a gesture or a laugh gratitude
You look at me but i've been looking at you we only were a mirror to show what you could do o innovator, o enlightened scolar play and write rewrite the old books, rennaisance perform new rites of light
The wise will redefine paradise the farmer and the visionary, a village - simple lives adapting to strange seasons in certain remote regions where no-one has exemption from total redemption
And when you find yourself alont the untrodden path remember me with a smile, a drink, a gesture or a laugh and a toast for the man who loves every hour of every day and a feast for the friends and faces met along the way gratitude
