Victory Waltz

Song Victory Waltz
Artist Matthew Ryan
Album From A Late Night High Rise

Lyrics

Where's the summer? Where's the sun?
Mute the violence, mute the drums
Up from Highland, down to Plum
Here November hopes were high
You said you would and so did I
You climbed the stairs and waved goodbye
And down below the rainy street
The drawl of car wheels on autumn leaves
I'm full of doubt, still I believe
'Cause if you're lucky there comes a bloom
That folds the night and fills your room
Your victory waltz, your never too soon
Gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone
Should we return what we became?
To be so fearless, to be so brave?
The loss in loss has never changed
Entire lives have gone oppressed
And this is surely safe to guess
The ghost of living is worse than death
And down below the lonely street
And far from there the silver sea
And further still you from me
Gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone
