Movement III - Crypt

[SHANTY] And so it was that I had grown Into a youth uncertain, thrown Amongst the lions and the lambs To pass the time we watched the children dance I used to come here when this place was a crypt Now the music plays Oh don't you sometimes wish they'd stick to the script As the local preacher says Rain from heaven will blessings bring Behold the harvest grown. R Ian from heaven falls down on you But me, I feel alone [PREACHER (sympathetically)] Alone [SHANTY] Alone [PREACHER] If they won't come to worship God in a church Something must be done We have to instigate a nationwide search For a way to make it fun Rain from heaven will blessings bring Behold the harvest grown [SHANTY and PREACHER] Rain from heaven falls down on you [SHANTY] But me, I feel alone Alone Here now What am I doing here now? Hear me Why do you never hear me? Why do you never hear me? [MARY DEE (as half-ghost)] I'll always be here I'll never leave you I'll always be in your mind Dreams of the future Ghosts of the past left behind [WOMEN'S Chorus] (Ah) [SHANTY] Thought I had a vision Lying in a graveyard Thought I heard a melody inside Could it be the future Speaking with the voice of those who died? Thought I saw a kingdom Happiness and laughter Somewhere for an innocent to play Is there any justice? Do these things still happen in this way? [MARY DEE] Don't tell him no It isn't fair For he was told by those who know There was love everywhere [SHANTY] Love everywhere [MARY DEE] Now's the time to tell him While his mother's crying Break it to him gently as she weeps Let him know his father Will be well looked after, where he sleeps [Chorus (ghosts)] He's sleeping amongst us He's in our dreams Don't worry. he's with us now [SHANTY] Don't say it's so It isn't fair For I was told by those who know There was love everywhere Alone
