Al Stewart - Lord Grenville Lyrics
Go and tell Lord Grenville that the tide is on the turn
It's time to haul the anchor up and leave the land astern
We'll be gone before the dawn returns
Like voices on the wind.
There's nothing here to keep us in this shanty town
None of us are caring where we're bound
Like voices on the wind
And come the day you'll hear them saying
"They're throwing it all away"
Nothing more to say
Just throwing it all away
Go and fetch the captain's log and tear the pages out
None of us are left in any doubt
We won't be back again
Send a message to the fleet, they'll search for us in vain
We won't be there among the reaches of the Spanish Main
Tell the ones we left home not to wait
We won't be back again.
(Won't be back again...)
And come the day you'll hear them saying
"They're throwing it all away"
Nothing more to say
Just throwing it all away
Our time is just a point along a line
That runs forever with no end
I never thought that we would come to find
Ourselves upon these rocks again
Oh no...
Go and tell Lord Grenville that the tide is on the turn

Does anyone know who played the amazing electric lead parts on this track.... Tim Renwick or Peter White?
great arrangement!
mi padre tenia ese disco yo tendría unos 5 años lo recuerdo bien porque la funda del disco era muy llamativa con todos esos dibujos, hermosos años
Uff. Una joya.👍 Para la posteridad. Ever.
Se mueve en el mismo escenario sonoro que Space Oddity, de hecho es la canción más bowienesca de Stewart y por eso me encanta. A pesar de la clara influencia, el tema sigue teniendo personalidad, el punteo de guitarra final por ejemplo, es sencillo y brillante.
