I've Heard Them Sing Lyrics

When i was young my father told
Me wonderfully tremendous tales
About a world that noone knows
The mystic kingdom of the whales
Monuments in flesh and blood
Gliding through eternity
Dancing through an unknown sea
As conquerors of gravity

And he told me 'bout
Their mysterious song
A song about pride
A song 'bout being strong
Melodies full
Of atmosphere
Chords in blue
Far from fear
Chords in blue
Written just for you

Years ago upon scottland's cliffs
In a warm october fullmoon night
I was enjoying the highland's glowing sky
Underneath eternal northern lights
When suddenly a soft strange sound
Made me forget everything
And i always will remember
This moment when i heard them sing
Another Tale - I've Heard Them Sing - http://motolyrics.com/another-tale/ive-heard-them-sing-lyrics.html
I've heard them sing
A mysterious song
About being hunted
And being killed too long
Chords in a blue
And cold atmosphere
Melancholic sounds
Of sorrow and fear
Chords in blue
Written just for you

Now the time has come to tell this tale
To our daughter and we've got to explain
Our reasons for doing nothing exept
Playing the hypocrite in our book of shame
Oh please, wynona, dont ask me why
We've killed what we claim to adore
No please, wynona, don't ask why
The whales don't sing anymore

So i tell her about
Their mysterious song
A song 'bout all those things
That went wrong
Melancholy and
Chords in blue
'bout a world we didn't
Protect for you
Chords in blue
