Amebix - Beyond The Sun lyrics

well you never flew the colours

and I never saw you bend a knee

to any man

but you were never short of brothers

there was always someone

holding out a helping hand

well, I remember the summer

we were riding to a show

and our road went on forever

so we were riding nice and slow

and then I heard the band play

and the sun broke through the sky

it was a fine day for a funeral ya

but I never wanted you to die

no one ever wanted you to die

we were watching at the crossroads

when I saw you wiping out

some metal box just slipped down

right into the side of you

I was screaming

I was screaming

I was screaming

but nothing was coming out

they always said you were

a dark horse

because you rode the land alone

but you know I think the real reason

that you were always riding home

and your road goes on forever

the sun will always shine

one day we'll be together

when we cross the final line

when we cross the line

if I turn to you and call you a friend

when all is said and all is done

will you meet me on the other side

seven million miles beyond the sun
