To anyone who served on TF42, whilst no one can ever capture fully what was achieved through those years, I hope this goes at least some way to summing it up for you.
It's certainly how I saw it,
Carl.
lyrics
Out are the wolves, drooling
On the scent of your black heart
I can hear them howling
Searching you out in the dark
In over the mountains
Through a fallen sky
Below no sympathy
Searchlights shining high
When the witching hour is over
And you're sure they're gonna come
Tears in the dust
A red river runs
The rope is swung, swingin'
For justice to succeed
Scared of the noose, the guilty
Dance for all to see
One minute call
Before the hunter cries
Then out from the shadows crawl
Wolves with glowing green eyes
When the witching hour is over
And you're sure they're gonna come
Tears in the dust
A red river runs
Beware the fury of a patient man
Learn quick from your mistakes
Men will soon grow weary
Dancing on the heads of snakes
When the witching hour is over
And you're sure they're gonna come
Tears in the dust
The red river runs
Tears in the dust
A red river runs
