Would you join a slow marching band And take pleasure in your leaving as the ferry sails and tears are dried and cows come home at evening Could you get behind a slow marching band And join together in the passing of all we shared through yesterdays in sorrows neverlasting Take a hand and take a bow You played for me that's all for now oh, and never mind the words just hum along and keep on going Walk on slowly don't look behind you Don't say goodbye, love I won't remind you Dream of me as the nights draw cold still marking time through Winter You paid the piper and called the tune and you marched the band away Take a hand and take a bow You played for me that's all for now oh, and never mind the words just hum along and keep on going Walk on slowly don't look behind you Don't say goodbye, love I won't remind you Walk on slowly don't look behind you Don't say goodbye, love I won't remind you remind you
