Hey Syd, we hardly knew ya
I heard you passed away today
Did you see Emily play?
We hardly knew ya
Did you play your last song?
For the piper at the gates of dawn?
We hardly knew ya
Obscured by clouds
Walking English hallowed grounds
A saucer full of secrets
Could not be found
What did you hear?
When the band youre in
Started playing a different tune?
A momentary lapse of reason
Youve come and gone
Like the change of the season
Hey Syd, we hardly knew ya
Did you see Emily play?
Heard you passed away today
Hey Syd, we hardly knew ya
Did you play your last song
With the Piper at the gate of dawn?

Lord got a time to make it
For one for me
Looks like I heard a shore to see
My baby
Just like a ship to shore
Ya know I need to see ya baby
Have some more
My baby
Oh I heard them talking just the other day
They were talking bout you in that special way
My baby
I looked up oh so high
That when I wished that I would fly
With my baby
My baby
I picked up the daily read
And in horror
Thought I saw your nose bleed
My baby
Sometimes just like Ive seen before
When a ship needs a signal
And it sends it to shore
My baby
Can you hear me?
My baby
Can you hear what Im singing now?
Hear my calling as we fall
As we make it back baby
Ill make it now
My baby
Just like a ship to shore
I need to hear you send a signal
I need it some more
My baby
We ride on the rocky winds
As the boats being tossed
And I hear you singing my baby
Oh the water I take
Is for my baby
My baby
Just like the little fishes in the sea
Ill be swimming to my baby
If I can make it to thee
Now my baby
Can you hear me now?
My baby
Salt water cooler
Be so friendly
Said I see you standing
Again and again
Now baby
Can you hear me calling down the shore?
My baby
Just like just like a ship to shore
I need my baby
Now I need some more
My baby
Can you hear me now?
Just like just like a ship to shore
I heard Satans calling
As if youll have some more
My baby |

We listened Wendy screamed
You could here her
Clear across Aberdeen
There was a time
When the shadows chased
The winds across the plains
It was a Day scream
Ah ha Wendy run
Wendy run
The town folk they stood over there
And they looked right down
At that Black square
There was a time
When the shadows chased
The winds across the plains
It was a daydream
Ah ha Wendy run
Wendy run
We listened
Wendy would tell
About the Witchity man
And his wishing well
About the time
When the shadows chased
The winds across the plains
It was a day scream
Ah ha Wendy run
Wendy run
We listened Wendy screamed
You could here her
Clear across Aberdeen
There was a time
When the shadows chased
The winds across
The plains
It was a day scream
Ah-ha Wendy run
Wendy run |

Dig down I say
There is nothing out of place
The cost, they say
Put your heart in
Were playing the game
I set up
Back over here
Hope sometimes that I win
South West is true
Seems like there jabbing at you
Get your foot out of my face
I don't wanna leave no trace
The count plus two
I am looking at you
Back and forth
And then they waste
Stand up
I am in but cannot give in
Sometimes I lay across
Seems like you walk right through me
And go back
Sometimes I waste
Sometimes I paste
Theyre over me
Sometimes its hard to see
The count is two
I am singing about you
Get time over here
I think I am gonna make you sing
And go back
Sometimes I waste
Sometimes I paste
Theyre over me
Sometimes its hard to see

You can say what you want
Say what you will
On days like these I lose the thrill
Un-touch-able
And above it all
I got news for you baby
How the mighty fall
Like those before you and many yet to come
Bought down by their actions
And by a forked tongue
You wouldnt be the first
You wouldnt be the last
To drink tears from the fountain
In a rose colored glass
Time is a wasting
Wasting time again
Life is confusion
Turn your back
The end |

And the days go on and on without end
As the months and the years all seem to blend
And you look for answers and search for signs
But they never appear and youre feeling left behind
This life
Is one big test
This life
Leaves you with less
This life
Is one big test
This life
Leaves you with less
The answers arent clear and youll never really know
Just how far you would be willing to go
If you never really tried and you never had to care
Then youll never overcome and youll never be aware
Have you
Loved your best
Have you
Passed the test
Have you
Tried your best
Have you
Passed this test
And the days go on and on without end
As the months and the years all seem to blend
our time here is short and almost at an end
All you have is now, and time is not your friend
Have you
Loved your best
Have you
Passed the test
This life
Is one big mess
This life
Leaves you with less
And the days go on and on without end
As the months and the years all seem to blend
our time here is short and almost at an end
All you have is now, and time is not your friend |

I hoe
I know
The rows are straight and narrow
I hoe
I row
The plow is my friend
Seems that Jim has been coughing bout an hour
Last I heard he was down by the slaughter
Seems that Jim is just taken his time
He musta smoked more than a dime
I hoe
I know
The rows are straight and narrow
I hoe
I row
The plow is my friend
All this talk is ment to please
Shoulda seen Jim down on his knees
Pulling weeds and watching out for the trees
Jims doing just what Jim please
I hoe
I know
The rows are straight and narrow
I hoe
I row
The plow is my friend
Seems that Jim has met his match
Squash and beans was his catch
Last I heard the soil was so dry
It stirs up memories that made Jim cry
I hoe
I know
The rows are straight and narrow
I hoe
I row
The plow is my friend

Im mental I'm feeling sentimental
I got to get up the courage now give you a call
Im mental Im feeling sentimental
Let my fingers do the walking a give you a call
I got your number written on the wall
Im feeling sentimental
Im feeling sentimental
I think Im going to give your number
I got to get up the courage now give you a call
I got to get up the courage
Its times like these I need a call
Days like these you know there not the best
With your past catching up
And your put to the test
A familiar voice to put things right
To clear your mind to get you through the night
Im mental Im feeling sentimental
I got to get up the courage an give you call
Oh -oh Im mental Im feel sentimental
This time it just seems right
I think I got the courage to give you a call
I got your number written down on the wall
I got your number written down on the wall
Oh baby you know what im talking about
You never pick up when I try and call
Speed dial doesnt work
And redial not at all
The ringing in your ears
The ringing in my head
I just need an answer
Some help from a friend
Im mental I'm feeling sentimental
I got to get up the courage now give you a call
Oh baby Im mental Im feeling sentimental
Let my fingers do the walking a give you a call
I got your number written on the wall
