Jericho

Full fathom five my father lies

Lying to this day

In empty hands, I hold the prize

The pearls that were his eyes

The things he didn't say

In unmarked ground he wanders around

Forever lost and found

I wait in vain to hear him call my name

Forever anyway

I can almost hear him say

It's no sin to move on

Leave the dead in the ground

Little boy blue

Blow Joshua 's horn

And let’s just see what comes tumbling down

Waiting by my father’s grave

For a sign that never comes

Acceptance of the hopelessness saves

So I a man become

And a father to my son

It's no sin to walk on

Put the dead weight down

Little boy blue

Blow Gabriel's horn

And let’s just see what comes back around

In the silence words begin to form

Like the distant clouds before the storm

It's no sin to move on

Leave the dead in the ground

Little boy blue

Blow Joshua 's horn

And let’s just see what comes back around
