ACHILLES LAST STAND

It was an April morning When they told us, we should go And as I turned to you You smiled at me How could they say no All the funds they have Delivered the dreams, we'd always had Oh, and the songs to sing When we at last, return again Swept me off, that glance of his To those who claim they know Lonely streets, have seen the years Devil's in his hole Oh to sail away To sandy lands, and other days Oh, to trust the dream Eyes inside, that never have seen, yeah To the sun, the south, the north Lies the purse of gold Shackles of, commitments found The pieces on the ground Oh, to ride the wind To tread the air, above the din Oh to laugh aloud And dance tonight, across the crowds, yeah Seek the man whose pointing hands The giant semaphore To guide us from the curving clouds That turns our feet to stone If one bell should ring A celebration for a king Suffice, no heart should beat Let's grab the hands and heavy feet, yeah Days we find, that you and I Mabe an eternal summer's glow As far away, and distant And you're too tired to go Oh, the sweet refrain Soothes the soul And calms the pain Oh I hope, he'll remain Sleeping now, to rise again Wandering, wandering One place to rest his girth The mighty arms of Achilles Hold the heavens from the earth For the mighty arms of Achilles Hold the heavens from the earth From the earth Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh I'm gonna rain, gonna rain, gonna rain, blow away I'm gonna rain, gonna rain, gonna rain, blow away Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh The mighty arms of Achilles Hold the heavens from the earth Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah Ah ah ah
