Sarah Slean Attention Archers Lyrics

attention archers, a soldier down
he ran off with a dancer from out of town
now I'm a widow but I'm not taken out
it's the way you dance, not the gown
I came to death's door and turned the key
but over my shoulder, a symphony
do I hear music? is life not done with me?
back to earth you go, one two three...
dip your feet in the ocean
warm your hands by the fire
do not cry any longer I am on your side
my dear the mission is incomplete
of course you can cry but you can't retreat
where is your wisdom? where is the laugh so sweet?
in this marching band, you can't miss a beat
dip your feet in the ocean
warm your hands by the fire
do not cry any longer
I am on your side
do not cry any longer
I am on your side
I'm on your side.
