The Powdered Earth - Round the Blue Lyrics

Was a dazzling day
In the month of May
A chill air from the West

I'd like to say
Everyone was there
Dressed up in their Sunday best

But the line of cars
That we used to see
Was a memory

And the living
Are the ghostly
In this tragedy

When you go down
You're out of bounds
The send off was never for you

It's for the one
Who's left undone
A chain of love round the blue

We wrap them up
In a blanket
Of history

And the kids'll go
So one day they'll know
Their ancestry

In memoriam
Distance is a sham to let go of

We are by your side
Nothing will divide the chain of love
