The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers,
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
It's not enough, it's not enough
His blood has frozen & curdled with fright
His knees have trembled & given way in the night
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
His step has faltered
One world, one soul
Time pass, the river rolls
It's not enough it's not enough
His hand has faltered
.... .... ......
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
And silent replies that swirl invitation
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
A grim intimation of what is to be
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder that words,
Of promises broken
Pink Floyd-Southampton Dock (02:05)
Roger Waters - acoustic guitar, Bass and vocals. Michael Kamen - piano and orchestrations. Lyrics:-
They disembarked in 45 And no-one spoke and no-one smiled There were to many spaces in the line.
Gathered at the cenotaph All agreed with the hand on heart To sheath the sacrificial Knifes. But now
She stands upon Southampton dock With her handkerchief And her summer frock clings To her wet body
in the rain. In quiet desperation knuckles White upon the slippery reins She bravely waves the boys
...
No matter how old David gets, that black Strat will always remain the best sounding Strat ever! Good lord I love that sound!

@zdrumdude that only shows that there still are people that have a GREAT taste in music(btw, pink floyd is the onlything that you can call REAL music) and see that the other crap made by "the machine" isn't even worth listening to... it's just made to produce money and hypnotize the youth of today and telling them what they like to hear!
