Lyrics:
'Cause it's an Anglo-Saxon in love with his doom
Who left such a cheeky shrine
Then all at once the daylight came / The river lay ahead
In it stood
in this world
You made me call all over town
You're easy to lose when you want to be found
I remember a room lit by one brilliant light
Throw
At Notre Dame
The sections are prepared!
At rue de Bac
They're straining at the leash!
Students, workers, everyone
There's a river on the run
the river
The city lights are blazing
She looks like she could fly off
Like gravity is failling
Somewhere in the distance
A marching band is playing
And there is a light in the back of my mind
A film of her sitting by God on the other side
And I watch again and again just to find
How she is lovely
Oww get your groove on
New shiny shoes on
I'm a comin' in on lust and resurgence
With all my love I overflow the river Nile
Rolling on for
I took off a year
I put into words
Only hurt and how that feels
Changed by a friend
Shining a light
Only joy and what that yields
Remember
[Chorus:]
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It`s much harder to come by
I`m waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It`s as high
scarlet
Sending my soul to weep
I once dreamed of a tower
Of black ebony stone
Surrounded by three rivers
Flegethon, Acheron and Styx
And blood
Lay the weight of the world
At the other side
All the pain
All the fear
And the doubt, bitter tears
By demand of yesterday
In the light of your
filled all the silent wood
And when the sunbeams kissed his face
He opened his so lucky eyes in front of him the oak
The whispers of the river
a river of regrets
And thoughts of you
Holy tears
They linger on
Holding you
My light
Forever gone
You believed she'd never leave
Rosy cheeked
pole with Hekyll and Jekyll
I know many men who have sold the secret medium my way
I light that bowl and lose control of tracks constructed by
of a judgement day
Young girls hang out of window sills, a flowery frame for their charms' display
In our town, the river, smells of oil and shit
A hundred cranes
of motherhood, you pass on your antibodies
Defense against sickness, unwanted virus
Realize we came to this land by savage pirates
Never migrated, forced
dogwoods bloom by the river
come hell or high water
you'll be there where i ought to
now i always want to be there
when you work the whole thing through
spines
All dry rivers in my dying thirst for you
And you clearly can't decide dark from light
As we Hail, Hail to the new bastille
The albatross that
the one you think it is
And it's all about my town
She lived down by the river in this old black mans dirty house
They all tell she won't last so long
But
(Jimmy P. Brown II)
Turning away
Seeing the light
I vanquish the dark
And conquer the night
River of anger is rapidly flowing
Mind keeps unleashing
of the wild?
The call of the wild
Calling all children of the velvet night
Get your motor down to the city of light
Take your little baby by the hand
Jam it
the waters you give
Come and nourish our souls, we need your gift to live
I sit by the window pane
Waiting for the wind to rain
When will it fall down
On the Chicago River after dark
We watch the city lights tear the sky apart
The wind was blowing her hair around
As the scenery explodes, I'll
Lord, You're leading me
With a cloud by day
And then in the night
The glow of a burning flame
Everywhere I go I see You
Everywhere I go I see You
I was a third rate going nowhere burning for nothing to do
So we branded our hearts and we toasted the stars
Getting wasted by the light
