Van Der Graaf Generator Boat Of Millions Of Years lyrics

Horus the Good lived in the North
In lands of fertility and beauty
But Set stayed in the hard desert
To him belonged all drought and perversity

And he sheds his tears
Beneath the Boat of Millions of years
And he fights to kill the hawk
Bearing with him evil and darkness
But Horus lives with the sun

Forever the battle rages
Evil tries to kill the innocent baby
And only Osiris, the Lord of the Dead
Can eventually save it


So we must cast aside our future fears
And call out on the Boat of Millions of years
The God of Love is on our side
And with him we shall not die

There's life in the Sun
There's life in the Sun
Only in violence is the cause lost
In peace, gray, Set can't kill our baby of love

Can't kill our baby of love
