Pink Floyd - The Narrow Way Lyrics






Following the path as it leads towards the Darkness in the North
Weary strangers' faces show their sympathy
They've seen that hope before
And if you want to stay for a little bit
Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
Before you the night is beckoning
And you know you can't delay
You hear the night birds calling you
But you can't touch the restless sky
Close your aching eyes beyond your name
Mist is swelling, creatures crawling,
Hear the roar get louder in your ears
You know the folly was your own
But the force behind can't conquer all your fears
And if you want to stay for a little bit
Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
Before you the night is beckoning
And you know you can't delay
You hear the night birds calling you
But you can't touch the restless sky
Close your aching eyes beyond your name
Throw your thoughts back many years
To the time when there was life in every morning
Perhaps a day will come
When the nights will be as on that morning
And if you want to stay for a little bit
Rest your aching limbs for a little bit
Before you the night is beckoning
And you know you can't delay
You hear the night birds calling you
But you can't touch the restless sky
Close your aching eyes beyond your name
Rest your weary head, be on your way.

Pink Floyd The Narrow Way Comments
  1. T.... H....

    Hmmm this song WAS MADE just over FIFTY YEARS AGO AND WAS AS AMAZING OR MORE because the sound effects achieved in the production of the album were WAY BEFORE THEIR TIME! There is no band that captured the world of the psychedelic better than The Pink Floyd” did! Too bad it came at an insane price for Syd and the band in losing his genius. 🌹🌹🎶🎤♥️✨🙏😔💎 🌈

  2. T.... H....

    What a band! What a great and mystical combination of blokes! It’s amazing to consider how lucky we are to have this amazing group, with and without Syd 😔😢! Thanks be to the universe for Pink Floyd! 🌹♥️✨🎶✨

    A musical masterpiece. From start to finish!

  4. Z.... P....

    You're welcome

  5. J.... S....

    I always love this tune now. However, when I first heard it, the middle section frightened me. I also heard it first maybe 45 years ago.

  6. J.... W....

    Foreshadowing ( by a little bit) the greatness that is David Gilmour.

    Grande Floyd 🙂👌👌🙏🙏

  18. B.... B....

    This song is a metaphor for life.  The initial playful guitar represents childhood.  The plodding part II is the demands of working life, and part three old age.  The darkness in the North & night that is beckoning is death; but occasionally you can rest rest your aching limbs for a little bit in the memory of youth.  BRILLIANT!

  19. R.... G....

    Psicodelia

  46. C.... 2....

    PINK FLOYD, had three different eras .And the music dramatically changed. But still all of it was original. telling true stories that still apply today .They sincerely played from the heart.Pink Floyds music was all extremely emotional. they were so brilliant throughout all of their history. they never gave in to the man, if you know what I mean. They never sold their souls!! They remain pure, and extremely talented !! Yes, they did break up. And as most breakups are, it was horrible.. But in the end Rodger Waters, and David Gilmour, both had some very successful albums after The Break-Up.... They were all extremely creative. And each one of them played a vital role in Pink Floyd!! Syd Barrett, Roger Waters, Nick Mason, Rick Wright, and David Gilmour, God bless you all !!

  47. C.... 2....

    Hello. Pink Floyd, was way ahead of it's time.. With Syd Barrett, at the helm they had all of this experimental sound altering devices. Before foot pedals, and synthesizers.. Truly engenius, very original. And they always were, and are!! They did things that no other band whatever touch

  48. E.... P....

    OMG what a trip <3

  49. W.... M....

    My God! This tune is almost half a century! God bless Pink Floyd for their awesome music!

  50. A.... O....

    after 40 years listening Pink Floyd I can recognize this is one of the best PF's pieces. Great Gilmour.

  51. F.... d....

    Thanks, I didn't know. Bought Ummagumma in 1973 after hearing Dark Side of the Moon.

  85. J.... A....

    La drogue, c'est le mal.

  86. R.... B....

    I used to play this track quite a bit in the 70s / 80s, to be honest most of the studio album kinda freaked me out (still does)then again it was pretty experimental and I recall both Gilmour and Waters saying that they cannot listen to it.

    ....Following the path as it leads towards the Darkness in the North
    Weary strangers faces show their sympathy
    They've seen that hope before....

    - the sense of foreboding is embedded in the lyrics as much as the unusual chord changes on this track
    Thanks for the upload and vid - an interesting synergy.

    R.... B....

    "hur hum"
    But you can't catch the Masters slegde.

  87. T.... j....

  93. M.... ....

    Gilmour's solo piece

  94. B.... T....

    Melhor banda de todos os tempos...
    O vídeo está à altura, muito bom.
    Obrigado!

  95. S.... A....

    the narrow way part 3 is the most underrated pink floyd song

    S.... A....

    I never understood why this wasn't released as a single, a bit of remixing to bring out Dave Gilmour's great vocals, love his multi tracked harmonies

    S.... A....

    It’s a masterpiece That gets stuck in your head. When a band is so talented, it’s hard to keep listening to ALL the best of it..we need more Time!
    Edit: A “friend, or acquaintance of a friend” stole half of Ummagumma from my large CD case. Of course it’s The half with THIS SONG. I hope that they feel a similar emptiness one day when they are looking for one of their favorite music products. Sorry, had to blow off some very old steam. I lost this CD 💿 before my life destroying Car Accident (not my fault- rear ended by two cars 🚗 going 40...) and it reminds me of wonderful days of my life before a over a decade long health hell. I long for those stolen days and years... this song really captures a beautiful place in time. Blessings.

  96. R.... K....

    Did you make this video yourself?

  97. R.... K....

    Amazing animation.
