Shhhh, Who, old Welsh giant on the hill Stone in his shoulder, stone in his will The warriors in village will tell Story’s about about the sleeping giant up the hill Boots on the path and the grass lies flat They swear he was watching, they swear he sat One eye half-open, one hand on the land Like the mountain itself had a pulse in his hand [Pre-Chorus] Say it low Say it slow Every child knows where the old stones go When the fog rolls in and the crows all turn That giant breathes, and the lanterns burn [Chorus] Sleeping giant on the hill Sleeping giant, standing still (Who will wake him?) Who will wake him now? Sleeping giant on the hill Sleeping giant, iron and will (Who will wake him?) Who will wake him now? [Verse 2] Old men point where the hawthorn bends At the broken ring where the valley ends Girls in the market, boys by the gate Learn the giant’s name before it’s late He drank from thunder, he ate the rain Left a deep, dark print in the lane Now the sheep go silent when the moon hangs low And the whole hillside waits for a step to show [Pre-Chorus] Say it low Say it slow Every child knows where the old stones go When the fog rolls in and the crows all turn That giant breathes, and the lanterns burn [Chorus] Sleeping giant on the hill Sleeping giant, standing still (Who will wake him?) Who will wake him now? Sleeping giant on the hill Sleeping giant, iron and will (Who will wake him?) Who will wake him now? [Bridge] If he opens his eyes Will the earth crack wide? Will the village bells shake In the middle of the night? Or will he just rise Like a memory told By the fire, by the road By the brave and the old? [Final Chorus] Sleeping giant on the hill Sleeping giant, standing still (Who will wake him?) Who will wake him now? Sleeping giant on the hill Sleeping giant, iron and will (Who will wake him?) Who will wake him now?
