The Sword By My Side by The Thermals Lyrics

Sun at my back
Wind in my way
The path, like the light
Like the light, will decay

The hand in the end of my arm holds tight
Knows what we fight for
Now, the hand at the end of my arm holds tight
Waits for the sword

Moon in the sky
Lighting the way
The path, like time
Like all time will pass away

The hand at the end of my arm
Bred to fight
Headed to war
The hand at the end of my arm
Readies the sword
The sword by my side
Will cut a hole in the sky
Will leave nowhere to hide

The sword by my side
Will allow me to be
The last thing my enemies will see

The hand at the end of my arm
Bred to fight
Headed to war
The hand at the end of my arm
Readies the sword

The sword by my side
Will cut a hole in the sky
Will leave nowhere to hide

The sword by my side
Will allow me to be
The last thing my enemies will see

The sword by my side
It will lead me to lie
To a hole in the ground when I die
Yeah, when I die
