THE RETURN OF PAN
By The Waterboys

I stood upon the balcony with my brand new bride
The clink of bells came drifting down the mountainside
when in our sight something moved
- lightning eyed and cloven-hooved
The Great God Pan is alive !

He moves amid the modern world in disguise
It's possible to look into His immortal eyes
He's like a man you'd meet any place
until you recognize that ancient Face
The Great God Pan is alive !

At sea on a ship in a thunderstorm
on the very night the Christ was born
a sailor heard from overhead
a mighty voice cry "Pan is Dead!"
So follow Christ as best you can
Pan is dead - Long live Pan !

From the olden days and up through all the years
From Arcadia to the stone fields of Inisheer
Some say the Gods are just a myth
but guess Who I've been dancing with...
The Great God Pan is alive !
