lyrics

NEVER STOP MOVING
(John Jones)

If a siren lived in every village
I would never stop moving
I’d follow her voice and her haunting image
I would never stop moving

Through the quiet lanes and the silent fields
I would never stop moving
When the red swan sailed, as the flood recedes
I would never stop moving

To keep the faith in which I’m held
To follow the thread of lifelong friends
Goodwill I’ve earned and the pain I’ve felt

Then the rains came and the river rose
I will never stop moving
We left the house in just our clothes
I will never stop moving

In the darkest hour when time did freeze
I will never stop moving
Stone in the water, voice on the breeze
I will never stop moving

Through the labyrinth of empty halls
Frozen hearts that can’t recall
Just what it was made the rains fall
Just what it was made the rains fall

We look and look for who’s to blame
Was it men in love that brought us pain
Like the falling leaf that stopped the train

We searched and searched to find a thread
I will never stop moving
Flood waters rising in my head
I will never stop moving

We fracked the earth and the waters rose
I will never stop moving
We bruised the land, we sold our souls
I will never stop moving

Through the labyrinth of empty halls
Frozen hearts that can’t recall
Just what it was made the rains fall
Just what it was made the rains fall...
