Strange talkings I have heard
Strange warnings I've been told
By whom
Made a bed of rain to cradle you
Wrapped in words to keep you warm
Side by side, in the night we lie
Must you hold your tongue, dear friend of mine
Once we were and twice we came
And the following wind couldn't catch our names
Take the lead with your marching feet
Gathering speed with every word you speak
Oh marching feet
For I have held a troubled dream
Traced the tracks of this well-worn theme
Idle mind Idle eyes
A heavy heart I'm sure to find
For every silent mind a silent shout
Mark my words a secret sound by whom by whom by whom
Leaves me cold inside, leaves me cold inside...
Oh idle mind
