I’ve come over heathered moor
I’ve come to settle an old score
Did you forget so soon
Oh did you forget so soon

It was here on this very shore
With the waves crashing at our feet
It was here that we swore
On our lives on the sea

Did you believe it would come so soon
That our mettle would so quickly turn to rust
Did you foresee this impending doom
When all of our lives turn to dust

I’ll hold you to your word
I’ll hold you to my heart
It seemed so absurd
That we should ever part

Did you believe it would come so soon
That our mettle would so quickly turn to rust
Did you foresee this impending doom
When all we love turns to dust
The Sweet Hereafter

Here we are in the sweet hereafter
No more tears, no more tears of laughter
Just the purest form of sorrow
Hoping that tomorrow
Won’t dawn so grey
As today

Broken hearts, broken hearts and broken bones
Fetch his charts; doesn’t matter no one’s home
Just the empty shell of a man
Who lived and died upon the land
That they took away
Hey, hey, hey

Bombs and guns
Fathers daughters mothers sons
Torn apart
Limb from limb and heart from heart
Oppressed turned oppressor
Zionist aggressors
Force them away

So they strive
For peace work freedom and bread
But they’re not alive
They’re just un-dead
Settlements built
On Arab bones and western guilt
Palestine
Don’t put down your guns this time

Here we are in the sweet hereafter
No more tears, no more tears of laughter
Just the purest form of sorrow
Hoping that tomorrow
Won’t dawn so grey
