Paul McCartney - Movement V - Wedding lyrics

SHANTY

I know I should be glad of this

For to be thankful is

To know.

I hope

That you will still be here,

The time is drawing near

For us to know.

MARY DEE (no longer as a ghost)

I'll always be here

As long as you've got time for me.

Whether it's joy or sadness,

It doesn't matter

As long as you have time for me,

We will be together.

SHANTY

I know That to be thankful is

Not what I need, but just for right now

It's all I've got.

I know that patience is a virtue.

But at this time in my life

I need something more.

Something in the air

Is slowly drawing us together.

MARY DEE

Sit tight,

Be brave.

And believe in something more.

SHANTY

If I could sit still,

It I could be courageous.

I have a feeling that there's something

Drawing us inevitably towards it.

MARY DEE

If you have patience,

You needn't wait for ever.

This is the story that they tell the children

Who are always asking the question.

SHANTY

I know Someone is making sense.

MARY DEE

We have a common sense.

(Ah)

SHANTY and CHORUS

(Ah)

BOYS

Father, hear our humble voices.

We will praise Thee all our days.

Cleanse our sins, release our minds.

We will be together.

PREACHER and WOMEN'S CHORUS

Lord, deliver Thy salvation

Unto those that bless Thy name.

FULL CHORUS

Let them live in harmony,

SOLO QUARTET

With Thy Holy Spirit.

CHORUS

Hosanna, Hosanna.

Gloria in excelsis Deo.

MARY DEE and SHANTY

God in heaven, save Thy thunder

For the enemies of love.

Bathe us in Thy holy light.

We will live together.

CHORUS
