lyrics

A cold and dark September day
Clouds up in the sky
All around I'm hearing, is people asking why
But echos of my parents came ringing in my ears
Instead of their derision these are the words I could hear

Never give up, keep you dreams alive
Never give up, hold your head up high
Never give up, keep your dreams alive
Never forget you're one of the 45

People said it's over, we'll never see its like again
People said we had our chance
And blew it there and then
But I whisper from our children came gently to my ears
Instead of childish laughter, these are the words I could hear

Never give up, keep you dreams alive
Never give up, hold your head up high
Never give up, keep your dreams alive
Never forget you're one of the 45

Tribal Heart (Rebirth Edition)
by Clann An Drumma

supported by 7 fans who also own “45”

I discovered Clann an Drumma as a suggestion while streaming. And I was hooked from the very first song. Their music has a strong power with melody. The drums are perfect and powerful. And the bagpipes are very melodic. And everything plays perfectly together. bagpipefan
