Lyrics: Falconer. The Past Still Lives On.

Here I walk on pathway so old
Travelers of yesterday I still behold
Hearken to the waves caressing the shore
Oh, how much land have they seen before

Oh, mountain great, how much you must know
So tell me stories from ages ago
Oh, vast sea, whom ship sailed upon
Why did they sail and where are they gone?

Behold the traces of history
Open your eyes and you'll see
That all across the land lies
Secrets to be revealed
The past still lives on

Lost mariners who still sail the seas
Who were your children you no more would see?
Earth, wind and water and burning sun
Bring me back to when we lived as one

Oh, mountain great, how much you must know
So tell me stories from ages ago
Oh, vast sea, whom ship sailed upon
Why did they sail and where are they gone?

Behold the traces of history
Open your eyes and you'll see
That all across the land lies
Secrets to be revealed

Behold the traces of history
Open your eyes and you'll see
That all across the land lies
Secrets to be revealed
The past still lives on, lives on

Behold the traces of history
Open your eyes and you'll see
That all across the land lies
Secrets to be revealed

Behold the traces of history
Open your eyes and you'll see
That all across the land lies
Secrets to be revealed
The past still lives on, lives on
