(Roger Taylor and Nicholas Evans)


Between men, between horses there is mistrust and fear

And it's only got deeper with the passing of years

We know this from paintings we know this from books

Some men had real magic while others just took

There were gypsies and showmen, and charlatan shamans

There were men who could softly whisper the devils away

John Solomon Rary tamed a horse of the Queen

Laid it down on the ground

Then he laid down beside it and put his head on it's hooves

You can imagine the scene


For secrets uttered softly into pricked and troubled ears

These men were known as whisperers

These men were known as whisperers


An Indian charm bought for the price of a meal

Was the secret of Sullivan that died with him for real?

We know this from paintings we know this from books

Some men had real magic while others just talked


For secrets uttered softly to soothe all troubled fears

These men were known as whisperers

These men were known as whisperers


For secrets uttered softly to soothe all troubled fears

These men were known as whisperers

For secrets uttered softly into pricked and troubled ears

These men were known as whisperers


These men were known as whisperers
