Distant Drums

I hear the sound of distant drums Far away, far away And if they call for me to come Then I must go and you must stay So Mary marry me, let's not wait Let's share all the time we can before it's too late Love me now for now is all the time there may be If you love me Mary, Mary marry me I hear the sound of bugles blow Far away, far away And if they call, then I must go Across the sea, so wild and grey So Mary marry me, let's not wait For the distant drums might change our wedding date And love me now, for now is all the time there may be If you love me Mary, Mary marry me
