Piper to the end lyrics

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 fo

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
