Intro

0:07

 When I leave this world behind me

 To another I will go

 If there are no pipes in heaven

 I’ll be going down below

 If friends in time be severed

 Someday we will meet again

 I’ll return to leave you never

 Be a piper to the end

 This has been a day to die for

 Now the day has almost gone

 Up above a choir of seabirds

 Turns to face the setting sun

 Now the evening dawn is calling

 And all the hills are burning red

 And before the night comes falling

 Clouds are lined with golden thread

 We watched the fires together

 Shared our quarters for a while

 Walked the dusty roads together

 Came so many miles

 This has been a day to die on

 Now the day is almost done

 Here the pipes will lay beside me

 Silent will the battle drum

 If friends in time be severed

 Someday here we will meet again

 I return to leave you never

 Be a piper to the end

Repeat last progression and fade out.
