lyrics

The trees lay down by the river to sleep
The mine was in the field and the shephards grew week
The town sung shame while the rest grew meek
The wind left a memory and the river ran deep
The wind left a memory and the river ran deep

The Signal Star shared the weekly report
Of a square laid bare by a mighty roar
The Champion had fallen several years before
As the wind tore through she was askin' for more
As the wind tore through she was askin' for more

There's no place like home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
There's no place like
no place like
no place like
no place like home

The Women Today had disbanded already
And the council of elders had yet to form
The Legion was stocked, beer and meat at the ready
And the sun was twice setting getting ready to mourn
And the sun was twice setting getting ready to mourn
