Lyrics

[01:07.39] The path is clear
[01:10.49] Though no eyes can see
[01:14.33] The course laid down long before.
[01:21.72] And so with gods and men
[01:25.58] The sheep remain inside their pen,
[01:29.17] Though many times they've seen the way to leave.
[01:37.62] He rides majestic
[01:40.14] Past homes of men
[01:44.04] Who care not or gaze with joy,
[01:52.17] To see reflected there
[01:55.24] The trees, the sky, the lily fair,
[01:58.43] The scene of death is lying just below.
[02:06.11] The mountain cuts off the town from view,
[02:13.41] Like a cancer growth is removed by skill.
[02:20.54] Let it be revealed.
[02:26.91] A waterfall, his madrigal.
[02:34.21] An inland sea, his symphony.
[02:53.86] Undinal songs
[02:56.21] Urge the sailors on
[03:00.15] Till lured by sirens' cry.
[08:30.55] Now as the river dissolves in sea,
[08:36.79] So Neptune has claimed another soul.
[08:44.98] And so with gods and men
[08:48.61] The sheep remain inside their pen,
[08:51.17] Until the Shepherd leads his flock away.
[08:59.23] The sands of time were eroded by
[09:05.83] The river of constant change.
