  2. Lyric to "There's A Chain" for those who appreciate the words as much as the music:-

    So I greet you now as the evening light is fading
    From the window of delights, I stood there so long ago
    With all the colours of the new and the rushing world abounding
    Wasting every breath and heartbeat, trying to wash away the rain

    Stars come crashing down, from the world these days they shudder
    Round the houses in the dawn, we stood and watched them as they fall
    But let us walk on through the storm with all the might of life inside us
    May your days be filled with gladness and your nights with endless calm

    May you grow up to be kind, may you grow up to be gentle
    May you go on to be loved and may you go on to be wise
    And may each sunrise keep you warm and may each failure keep you learning
    ’Cause we’ll never lose the living, all we’ll ever lose is time

    There’s a chain
    It binds us all in lives of wonder
    There’s a chain, hold it closely as you go
    Let this name be your family and your shelter
    Take this chain all your days don’t let go

    There’s a chain
    A chain of life and time and passing
    There’s a chain, guard it closely as you go
    Let this name be your family and your shelter
    Take this chain all your days don’t let go
