The Eve of the War (Highlights Version)

The Eve of the War （Highlights Version） - Jeff Wayne/Liam Neeson/Gary Barlow
Written by：Jeff Wayne
No one would have believed
In the last years of the nineteenth century
That human affairs were being watched
From the timeless worlds of space
No one could have dreamed
We were being scrutinized
As someone with a microscope
Studies creatures that swarm
And multiply in a drop of water
Few men even considered
The possibility of life on other planets
And yet across the gulf of space
Minds immeasurably superior to ours
Regarded this earth with envious eyes
And slowly and surely
They drew their plans against us
The chances of anything coming
From mars are a million to one he said
The chances of anything coming
From mars are a million to one but still they come
The chances of anything coming
From mars are a million to one he said
The chances of anything coming
From mars are a million to one but still they come
