Advance Guards Lyrics

From the albums SUMMER BREEZE (1972), SUDAN VILLAGE (1976) and
LIFT UP YOUR VOICES AND SING, VOL. 3 (1997)

I used to look out from my window and see the tall grass in the wind
Standing there just like advance guards waiting for the battle to begin
My mother used to be much younger. She'd sing me soft, sweet lullabies
I saw my fortress in the mountains each time I looked into her eyes

But now she's gone
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
Take me I just want to know what I used to know
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
Take me there, take me I just want to go

My father's hair has turned to grey now. I never stopped to ask him why
And all the things that he onced treasured, I see them slowly drifting by
And now I look out from my mountain and see the soldiers in the field
It won't be long now 'til they have me. This time advance guards are for real

Come on, come on and
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
Take me I just want to know what I used to know
Take me there, take me there, I don't care where we go
Take me there, take me I just want to go
