Been wrapping presents tonight...it has turned into a Dire Straits marathon....I have replayed this song about five times now. Listening to the closing of the song, the interplay of the keyboards and Mark Knopfler's guitar is so intensely sensuous, with the sounds wrapping around each other and then punctuated by the mournful wail of the guitar and with the constant rhythm of the base in the background, the picture that develops in my mind, as I close my eyes, is that of the sounds flowing around each other in a gentle and graceful act of love making. Brothers in Arms These mist covered mountains Are a home now for me But my home is the lowlands And always will be Some day you'll return to Your valleys and your farms And you'll no longer burn To be brothers in arms Through these fields of destruction Baptisms of fire I've witnessed your suffering As the battles raged higher And though they did hurt me so bad In the fear and alarm You did not desert me My brothers in arms There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones Now the sun's gone to hell And the moon's riding high Let me bid you farewell Every man has to die But it's written in the starlight And every line on your palm We're fools to make war On our brothers in arms
