Walk Lightly Lyrics - Levellers

Half an hour is gone and here we belong 

Living it so it can't be wrong 

'cause I was born the wrong way round 

Growing up while coming down 

But I didn't even know this 

When you took me by the hand 

That you 

Talk ever so lightly 

Lately 

And you walk 

Ever so slowly 

I didn't know and I didn't care 

What there was that could catch your breath 

But a moment gone is a moment caught 

And in half an hour I was taught 

That I didn't need to know this 

When you walked out of the night 

That you talk ever so lightly 

Lately 

And you walk 

Ever so slowly 

I didn't move and I didn't breath 

To be there where you were 

I didn't think 'cause I didn't know 

That half an hour spent 

And all of the days and all of the ways 

Will be there when you are gone 

'cause you talk ever so lightly 

Lately 

A nd you walk 

Ever so slowly 

Half an hour's gone and we're still together 

Walking now beneath the weather 

All the dreams, all the pains 

All that's come back again 

But we don't need to be there 

When it comes on oh so low 

'cause you talk ever so lightly 

Lately 

And you walk 

Ever so slowly 

Come on this time but not for us 

To be there when we're gone 

And all of the world and all of the days 

Are just half an hour long 

And all of the lives of all of the gods 

Will envy us our song 

'cause you talk ever so lightly 

Lately 

And you walk 

Ever so slowly
