about

Set in 1776 on Manhattan Island during the early months of the revolutionary war, in what is now the United States.

lyrics

Every night, we were on your side. Standing on the corner, we waited for your orders. Almost every night, in the firelight. You called out from the shadows, and we headed for the narrows, where we wait in silence.

For the sound of the song that's playing in your head. For the screaming bullets, way up in the sky. Or the smell of the downtown city streets on a humid summer night.

We would stay 'til the winter came. The ideals of resistance had strengthened our resistance. And we kept along, many thousand strong. Their ships filled up our harbor with canon, men, and armor. While we wait in silence for the song that's playing in your head.

We heard hundreds of anchors fall, but the wind is not quite right for the ships to come along the shore. So we might have one more night.
