Verse 1

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.

Verse 2

Could you get behind a slow marching band?

 And join together in the passing

 of all we shared through yesterdays

 in sorrows neverlasting.

Bridge

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.

Chorus

Walk on slowly -

 don't look behind you.

 Don't say goodbye, love.

 I won't remind you.

Verse 3

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 aw - ay.

Bridge

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.

Chorus

Walk on slowly -

 don't look behind you.

 Don't say goodbye, love.

 I won't remind you.

REPEAT CHORUS

Walk on slowly -

 don't look behind you.

 Don't say goodbye, love.

 I won't remind you.

remind you.
