Intro: Verse When I was a lad, I had music in me My father remembers it, fondly to be Said I had rhythm before I could walk Oh, his heart songs last Though his time has passed Lift your hearts and sing with us One strong voice to raise you up Songs sung for me and for you And forever, together we're the music makers Instrumental: Verse it is well I remember her singing to me The sweetest of voices there ever could be My mother's keepsake, it's plain now to see Was her secret key Her beautiful melody Lift your hearts and sing with us One strong voice to raise you up Songs sung for me and for you And forever, together we're the music makers Instrumental: Verse A travelling piper, that was his trade The dancer at the crossroads, to the music he made The barroom's all gone now, but his legend survives They hum his tunes today Distant pipes still play Instrumental Verse We share a voice with the great balladeers The legacy carried, we're proud to be here The gifts that they gave us, we now give to you So, for one last time Before we say goodnight Lift your hearts and sing with us One strong voice to raise you up Songs sung for me and for you And forever, together Lift your hearts and sing with us One strong voice to raise you up Songs sung for me and for you And forever, together And together, forever we're the music makers
