A Gentle Sound Lyrics

Railway Children A Gentle Sound

i know a little church
standing lonely on a hillside
it's cross was bent and broken
scratched and pitted by the cruel tide
one learned man with one book
surveys the blue sky
could the sea should banish god from his town
i can hear a sound
a gentle sound
it's all around me
it takes me up and down
all around me
i know a little girl standing lonely by the quayside
her hair was long and brown
it came right down all around all love fights hate
in her looks
and in her sighs
still this girl could banish all
but her heart.
i can hear a sound
a gentle sound
it's all around me
it takes me up and down
all around me
