"Musicmakers" lyrics

"Musicmakers"

When I was a lad I had music in me
My father remembers it fondly to be
Said I had rythm before I could walk
Oh his heart songs last
Though his time has past

Lift your hearts and sing with us
One strong voice to raise you up
Sung song for me and for you
And forever together we're the music makers

Just well I remember her singing to me
The sweeetest of voices there ever could be
My mothers keeps say it plain now to see
Was it secrecy
Her beautiful melody

Lift your hearts and sing with us
One strong voice to raise you up
Sung song for me and for you
And forever together we're the music makers

A travelling piper
That was his tray
... the crossroads to the music he made
The barrel goes down now
But his legends survives
... tunes today
Distant pipes still play

We share a voice with the great paladers
The legacy carried we're proud to be here
The gifts they ones gave us we now give to you
So for one last time
Before we say good night

Lift your hearts and sing with us
One strong voice to raise you up
Sung song for me and for you
And forever together

Lift your hearts and sing with us
One strong voice to raise you up
Sung song for me and for you
And forever together and together forever
We're the music makers
