Artist/Band: Pink Floyd
Lyrics for Song: The Narrow Way (Parts I-III)
Lyrics for Album: Ummagumma [1969]



Following the path as it leads toward

The darkness in the north

Weary stranger's faces show their sympathy

They've seen that hope before



And if you want to stay for a little bit

Rest your aching limbs for a little bit

For you the night is beckoning

And now you can't delay

You hear the night birds calling you

But you can't catch the words they say

And you must you realize be on your way



Mystery swelling, creatures crawling

Hear the roar ger louder in your ears

You know the folly was your own

But the force behind can't conquer all you fears



And if you want to stay for a little bit

Rest your aching limbs for a little bit

For you the night is beckoning and you know

And now you can't delay

You hear the night birds calling you

But you can't catch the words they say

And you must you realize be on your way



Throw your thoughts back many years

To the time when love was life with every morning

Perhaps a day will come when the match for me the curlers past warning



And if you want to stay for a little bit

Rest your aching limbs for a little bit

For you the night is beckoning

And now you can't delay

You hear the night birds calling you

But you can't catch the words they say

And you must you realize be on your way


The Narrow Way (Parts I-III)

Released in 1969 on the experimental double album Ummagumma, "The Narrow Way" stands as a pivotal work in Pink Floyd's early discography. This piece, composed by Roger Waters and Richard Wright, serves as a musical exploration of spiritual and philosophical themes, reflecting the band's growing interest in progressive rock and avant-garde composition. The track features a distinctive blend of orchestral arrangements and electronic textures, characteristic of the group's evolving sound during the late 1960s. It was recorded at Abbey Road Studios and marked a significant departure from the psychedelic rock of their previous releases, showcasing a more complex and structured approach to songwriting. The composition remains a notable example of the band's ability to integrate diverse musical elements into a cohesive narrative, influencing subsequent developments in progressive and art rock genres.
