Lyrics
Lights in the city, they go down in the city
And there ain’t nobody there to love me
Lights in the city, they go down in the city
And there ain’t nobody there above me
I’m looking for you
Why won’t you show
I’m looking for you
In this city of Ghosts
City of Ghosts
Lights go down, they go down in the city
And there ain’t nobody there
Lights go down, they go down in the city
And there ain’t nobody there
I’m looking for you
Why won’t you show
I’m waiting for you
But it’s a city of ghosts
City Of Ghosts
And there ain’t nobody there to love me
Lights in the city, they go down in the city
And there ain’t nobody there above me
I’m looking for you
Why won’t you show
I’m looking for you
In this city of Ghosts
City of Ghosts
Lights go down, they go down in the city
And there ain’t nobody there
Lights go down, they go down in the city
And there ain’t nobody there
I’m looking for you
Why won’t you show
I’m waiting for you
But it’s a city of ghosts
City Of Ghosts
My mom would give me twenty
And say “stay out till dawn”
When her boyfriend was over
And they wanted me gone
I would walk through the woods
To the old graveyard
And roll my own Tops
And think two kinds of thoughts
Are we high enough to clear these trees
I don’t know
That was the summer
Dave’s girlfriend O.D.d
She died in the bathroom
At a party down the street
I went to see him the next night
He had a new tattoo
He was watching home movies of her
His face was wet
He looked so confused
They had a funeral for her
The preacher said she was with the lord
There were lots of pictures of her
Taped to a poster board
Are we high enough to clear these trees
I don’t know
Are we high enough to clear this place
I don’t know
Grocery stores in the middle of the night shine their own kind of light
High school halls and shopping malls never fit me right
But my heart would swing free
Like a lasso from my hand
When I’d hear that sound
And put the pedal down
I wound up that Fall
In a hospital
On the suicide wing
With a lot of people thinking one thing
They had a sign on the wall
It said ‘no touching at all’
There were screams in the dark
Nurses running down the hall
On the night that I got there
They showered me and searched me hard
Then they took me to my little room
Overlooking a graveyard
When I opened my eyes
I was strapped to the bed
There was a needle in my arm
Part of me was gone
Then they took us outside
In our slippers and gowns
To play basketball on the blacktop
The ball just bounced till it stopped
Are we high enough
To clear these trees
I don’t know
Are we high enough to clear this place
I don’t know
Grocery stores in the middle of the night shine their own kind of light
High school halls and shopping malls never did me right
But my heart would swing free
Like a lasso from my hand
When I’d hear that sound
And put the pedal down
When the leaves were wet
Behind the old duplex
We used to run at night
Naked through the trees
And you would lean back against me
And I would try to stay soft
We’d listen to the engines
As the planes took off
And say “stay out till dawn”
When her boyfriend was over
And they wanted me gone
I would walk through the woods
To the old graveyard
And roll my own Tops
And think two kinds of thoughts
Are we high enough to clear these trees
I don’t know
That was the summer
Dave’s girlfriend O.D.d

High school halls and shopping malls never fit me right

We used to run at night
Naked through the trees
And you would lean back against me
And I would try to stay soft
We’d listen to the engines
As the planes took off
Every step I take
Takes me farther from you
Every move I make
Reminds me that I’ll always love you
Since you were a child
We’ve built our lives around you
Now how am I supposed to live
In this world we made without you
Sometimes late at night
I go to the field
Is that where you are
Are you a shooting star
Can you say my name
Darling can you hear me
Tell me where’s your heart
Now that it’s stopped beating
Its’ right here, it’s right here
It’s right here
When you joined the war
We were so proud of you
You seemed so grown up
Living life the way we taught you
Then your first letter came
It sounded nothing like you
It took all my strength
To keep myself from running to you
Sometimes late at night
I go to the field
Is that where you are
Are you a shooting star
Darling say my name
Darling can you hear me
Tell me where’s your heart
Now that it’s stopped beating
Its’ right here, it’s right here
It’s right here
And it will always be
Until the sun dries the ocean
And you will always be
My little one
If I was the president if I was that man
I would walk out with those kids
Out across the sand
If I was the president
If I was that brave
I would take a shovel there
And dig each child their grave
If I was the president and my world turned black
I wouldn’t want no victory
I’d just want you back
I don’t want no victory I just want you back
I don’t want no victory I just want you back
I don’t want no victory I just want you back
Sometimes late at night I go to the field
Is that where you are
Are you a shooting star
Can you say my name
Darling can you hear me
Tell me where’s your heart now
that it’s stopped beating
Its’ right here, it’s right here
It’s right here
And it will always be
Takes me farther from you
Every move I make
Reminds me that I’ll always love you
Since you were a child
We’ve built our lives around you
Now how am I supposed to live
In this world we made without you
Sometimes late at night
I go to the field
Is that where you are
Are you a shooting star
Can you say my name

Tell me where’s your heart now
that it’s stopped beating
Its’ right here, it’s right here
It’s right here
And it will always be
Is who you are now
Who you wanna be now
Or are you someone
You don’t wanna be
Is what you wanted
Really what you wanted
Or is it nothing
Like you dreamed
Mama there’s a hole in the life we’ve made
Thousands of people laughing in the shade
Pointing their fingers at the mess we’ve made
There’s a tourist in every heart that just wants to stay
But winter is coming and it’s time to go
It’s already over we just didn’t know
They’re stacking up wood where the flowers grow
There’s a tourist in every heart that can’t wait to go
Is who you are now
Who you wanna be now
Or are you someone
You don’t wanna be
Is what you wanted
What you really wanted
Or is it nothing
Like you dreamed
Honey there’s a boat and it waits for us
Somewhere there’s a time and a place for us
It could be perfect if it wasn’t for us
Mama we’re in love with a memory
A perfect dream of how it used to be
When our hair was windy
And out nights were free
That tourist in every heart sees what it wants to see
Is who you are now
Who you wanna be now
Or are you someone
You don’t wanna be
Is what you wanted
Really what you wanted
Or is it nothing
Like you dreamed
Dreamed
Who you wanna be now
Or are you someone
You don’t wanna be
Is what you wanted
Really what you wanted
Or is it nothing
Like you dreamed
Mama there’s a hole in the life we’ve made
Thousands of people laughing in the shade
Pointing their fingers at the mess we’ve made
There’s a tourist in every heart that just wants to stay
But winter is coming and it’s time to go
It’s already over we just didn’t know
They’re stacking up wood where the flowers grow
There’s a tourist in every heart that can’t wait to go
Is who you are now
Who you wanna be now
Or are you someone
You don’t wanna be
Is what you wanted
What you really wanted
Or is it nothing

When I got home there was blood on the door
I saw you lying on the kitchen floor
I ran down the hallway when I saw what he did
And found our little bitty baby lying dead in her crib
There’s a black wind blowing
Oh there’s a black wind blowing
There’s a black wind blowing outside our gates
Trying to blow this place into outer space
There’s a black wind blowing
I didn’t bother picking up the phone
I’m gonna get there first I want you all alone
There’s gonna be blood on the wall and a highway south
Your scripture won’t save you when my gun’s in your mouth
There’s a black wind blowing
Oh there’s a black wind blowing
There’s a black wind blowing outside our gates
Trying to blow this place into outer space
There’s a black wind blowing
I was eighteen when I first came here
Me and my brother trying to disappear
He chose the prophet baby I chose you
And from that day I feared what he could do
There’s a black wind blowing
Oh there’s a black wind blowing
There’s a black wind blowing outside our gates
Trying to blow this place into outer space
There’s a black wind blowing
I took the corner then I gunned it hard
I drove my truck into your front yard
You came out running but I was too fast
I took out your legs and dropped you in the grass
There were people outside I heard somebody scream
My whole life became a movie screen
I remembered us jumping on our momma’s bed
She was yelling “be careful or you’ll bump your head
I put my gun up under your chin
My hand was shaking so I dug it in
You started laughing and said “I understand
You wish you couldn’t but I know you can
You can”
There’s a black wind blowing
Oh there’s a black wind blowing
There’s a black wind blowing outside our gates
Trying to blow this place into outer space
There’s a black wind blowing
I saw you lying on the kitchen floor
I ran down the hallway when I saw what he did
And found our little bitty baby lying dead in her crib
There’s a black wind blowing
Oh there’s a black wind blowing
There’s a black wind blowing outside our gates
Trying to blow this place into outer space

Blood in my mouth blood in my mouth
Don’t you try to kiss me when there’s blood in my mouth
Blood on my face blood on my face
Don’t you take pictures when there’s blood on my face
Blood on my hands blood on my hands
Don’t you like it better when there’s blood on my hands
You could be sweet baby you could be kind
But you ain’t no friend, no
You ain’t no friend of mine
No you ain’t no friend of mine
You ain’t no friend of mine
No you ain’t no friend of mine
I walk the bodies into the yard
You take the bones home in your car
I wash the dishes baby you fold the pants
You could be sweet baby you could be kind
But you ain’t no friend no
You ain’t no friend of mine
No you ain’t no friend of mine
You ain’t no friend of mine
No you ain’t no friend of mine
Blood in your mouth blood in your mouth
Don’t you talk to me when there’s blood in your mouth
Blood on my face blood on my face
Don’t you take pictures when there’s blood on my face
Blood on our hands blood on our hands
Don’t we look better with blood on our hands
You could be sweet baby you could be kind
But you ain’t no friend no
You ain’t no friend of mine
No you ain’t no friend of mine
You ain’t no friend of mine
No you ain’t no friend of mine
Don’t you try to kiss me when there’s blood in my mouth
Blood on my face blood on my face
Don’t you take pictures when there’s blood on my face
Blood on my hands blood on my hands
Don’t you like it better when there’s blood on my hands

Hold my hand little one the feeling is slipping away
We’ve come so far you know, God how I wish I could stay
Hold my hand little one the feeling is coming again
We’ve got so far to go just when it feels like the end
Sing out
Sing for the wounded heart, sing for the lives we’ve lost
Sing out
Sing for the blood of man poured out at such a cost
Sing out
Maybe baby I don’t understand the flowers that you place in my hand
Sing out
Sing for the love of God, Sing for the changing man
I’ve been a rolling stone since the devil first came to me
No light upon my feet, so much that I couldn’t see
I was a hurricane then the hurricane called my name
Into the eye of the storm, out of the cold, cold rain
Sing out
Sing for the wounded heart, Sing for the lives we’ve lost
Sing out
Sing for the blood of man poured out at such a cost
Sing out
Maybe baby I don’t understand the power that you place in my hands
Sing out
Sing for the love of God, Sing for the changing man
Hold my hand little one the feeling is slipping away
We’ve come too far you know to let it turn out this way
Hold my hand little one the feeling is coming again
We’ve got so far to go, all when it feels like the end
I’ve been a rolling stone since the devil first came to me
No light upon my feet, so much that I couldn’t see
I was I hurricane till the hurricane called my name
Into the eye of the storm, out of the cold, cold rain
We’ve come so far you know, God how I wish I could stay
Hold my hand little one the feeling is coming again
We’ve got so far to go just when it feels like the end
Sing out
Sing for the wounded heart, sing for the lives we’ve lost
Sing out
Sing for the blood of man poured out at such a cost
Sing out
Maybe baby I don’t understand the flowers that you place in my hand
Sing out
Sing for the love of God, Sing for the changing man
I’ve been a rolling stone since the devil first came to me
No light upon my feet, so much that I couldn’t see
I was a hurricane then the hurricane called my name
Into the eye of the storm, out of the cold, cold rain
Sing out
Sing for the wounded heart, Sing for the lives we’ve lost
Sing out
Sing for the blood of man poured out at such a cost
Sing out
Maybe baby I don’t understand the power that you place in my hands
Sing out
Sing for the love of God, Sing for the changing man
Hold my hand little one the feeling is slipping away
We’ve come too far you know to let it turn out this way
Hold my hand little one the feeling is coming again
We’ve got so far to go, all when it feels like the end
I’ve been a rolling stone since the devil first came to me
No light upon my feet, so much that I couldn’t see
I was I hurricane till the hurricane called my name
Into the eye of the storm, out of the cold, cold rain
Underneath the lilac tree
I close my eyes and suddenly
I’m ten years old and running through
An open field chasing after you
Sounds of summer fill my ears
If I live ten thousand years
I’ll never feel as good as this
Moments before our first kiss
There is nothing to demand
No algebra to understand
Just sunlight on a freckled face
And everything in its right place
Simple things turn magical
Minutes freeze like popsicles
And drip their seconds down our shirts
I love you so much it hurts
There’s no such thing as real time
I’ve been yours and you’ve been mine
And we’ve lived ever happily
Everywhere I’ve been you’ve been with me
There is nothing to control
No question mark left on our souls
Just sunlight on a freckled face
There is nothing to demand
No politics to understand
Just sunlight on a freckled face
Everything in its right place
Everything in its right place
And I wanna give you a brand new sky
Something so open it brings tears to your eyes
So clear and so present it doesn’t seem real
I wanna show you how you make me feel
I wanna give you a brand new dream
Where two horses drink from a silver stream
As the trees catch fire they lift their heads
And bolt together through the forest across our beds
I wanna bring you fields of flowers
I wanna build you Eiffel towers
Take the clouds in the evening and turn them into stars
And drop them like keys though your prison bars
Set you free
I close my eyes and suddenly
I’m ten years old and running through
An open field chasing after you
Sounds of summer fill my ears
If I live ten thousand years
I’ll never feel as good as this
Moments before our first kiss
There is nothing to demand
No algebra to understand
Just sunlight on a freckled face
And everything in its right place
Simple things turn magical
Minutes freeze like popsicles
And drip their seconds down our shirts
I love you so much it hurts
There’s no such thing as real time
I’ve been yours and you’ve been mine
And we’ve lived ever happily
Everywhere I’ve been you’ve been with me
There is nothing to control
No question mark left on our souls
Just sunlight on a freckled face
There is nothing to demand
No politics to understand
Just sunlight on a freckled face
Everything in its right place
Everything in its right place
And I wanna give you a brand new sky
Something so open it brings tears to your eyes
So clear and so present it doesn’t seem real
I wanna show you how you make me feel
I wanna give you a brand new dream
Where two horses drink from a silver stream
As the trees catch fire they lift their heads
And bolt together through the forest across our beds
I wanna bring you fields of flowers
I wanna build you Eiffel towers
Take the clouds in the evening and turn them into stars
And drop them like keys though your prison bars
Set you free
Lonely road, we’ve gotta walk it just a little bit farther
Heaven knows it can’t get any harder then it is today
Lonely road, there’s light ahead but is it getting farther
Heaven knows it can’t get any darker then it is today
Who do you miss in times like this
When your thoughts are filled with sadness and regrets
To who do you pray when you’ve lost your way
And you’ve such a heavy load
Let me walk with you upon this lonely road
Lonely road, empty kitchen and a brand new feeling
Nothing’s moving but my heart is reeling since you went away
Lonely road, I’ve gotta walk it till I start forgiving
Find another way to go on living without you today
Who do you miss in times like this
When your thought are filled with sadness and regrets
To who do you pray when you’ve lost your way
And you’ve such a heavy load
Let me walk with you upon this lonely road
Lonely road, you gotta walk it till the thoughts astound you
And you look and find that all around you people walk with you
Lonely road, you gotta walk it till you won’t forget it
That the point is never where you’re headed, it’s what you’re going through
Who do you miss in times like this
When your thoughts are filled with sadness and regrets
To who do you pray when you’ve lost your way
And you’ve such a heavy load
Let me walk with you upon this lonely road
Heaven knows it can’t get any harder then it is today
Lonely road, there’s light ahead but is it getting farther
Heaven knows it can’t get any darker then it is today
Who do you miss in times like this
When your thoughts are filled with sadness and regrets
To who do you pray when you’ve lost your way
And you’ve such a heavy load
Let me walk with you upon this lonely road
Lonely road, empty kitchen and a brand new feeling
Nothing’s moving but my heart is reeling since you went away
Lonely road, I’ve gotta walk it till I start forgiving
Find another way to go on living without you today
Who do you miss in times like this
When your thought are filled with sadness and regrets
To who do you pray when you’ve lost your way
And you’ve such a heavy load
Let me walk with you upon this lonely road
Lonely road, you gotta walk it till the thoughts astound you
And you look and find that all around you people walk with you
Lonely road, you gotta walk it till you won’t forget it
That the point is never where you’re headed, it’s what you’re going through
Who do you miss in times like this
When your thoughts are filled with sadness and regrets
To who do you pray when you’ve lost your way
And you’ve such a heavy load
Let me walk with you upon this lonely road
High in the hills there’s an angel
And a ghost in chains
Here in your arms there’s a desert
where it always rains
As your legs begin to spread
How I wish I was not dead
Standing backwards to the blood of man
Babies in jars, luxury cars
Seasons that don’t come true
Happiness waits outside the gates
Watching each thing we do
Ocean mother, Ocean child
Are you mine or are you wild
Are you calling for the blood of man
I’ll keep my dreams in the river tonight
Under the rocks and stones
They will be all right
I’ll hide my dreams in the river tonight
Under the rocks and moss
There they will be all right
Where did you go
Oh please come back
I miss you so
Oh
Where did you go
Oh please come back
I miss you so
Oh
Ocean mother, Ocean child
Are you mine or are you wild
Are you calling for the blood of man
And a ghost in chains
Here in your arms there’s a desert
where it always rains
As your legs begin to spread
How I wish I was not dead
Standing backwards to the blood of man
Babies in jars, luxury cars
Seasons that don’t come true
Happiness waits outside the gates
Watching each thing we do
Ocean mother, Ocean child
Are you mine or are you wild
Are you calling for the blood of man
I’ll keep my dreams in the river tonight
Under the rocks and stones
They will be all right
I’ll hide my dreams in the river tonight
Under the rocks and moss
There they will be all right
Where did you go
Oh please come back
I miss you so
Oh
Where did you go
Oh please come back
I miss you so
Oh
Ocean mother, Ocean child
Are you mine or are you wild
Are you calling for the blood of man
If the house is on fire
You gonna run for the door
If the door is on fire
You gonna kneel on the floor
You get down low enough
You learn to love the flame
I’ve been loving you forever but I never knew your name
I’ve been loving you forever but I
We fell in love in the woods
In the Hollywood hills
In the death of a friend
In the bottles and pills
Through war and at peace
I’ve loved you the same
I’ve been loving you forever but I never knew your name
I’ve been loving you forever but I
Put the ghost in my sail
Put the spin in my wheel
Roll me up in your heart
Aw, make it seem real
I’m clay in your hands
I’m the ball in you game
I’ve been loving you forever but I never knew your name
I’ve been loving you forever but I never knew your name
I’ve been loving you forever but I
You gonna run for the door
If the door is on fire
You gonna kneel on the floor
You get down low enough
You learn to love the flame
I’ve been loving you forever but I never knew your name
I’ve been loving you forever but I
We fell in love in the woods
In the Hollywood hills
In the death of a friend
In the bottles and pills
Through war and at peace
I’ve loved you the same
I’ve been loving you forever but I never knew your name
I’ve been loving you forever but I
Put the ghost in my sail
Put the spin in my wheel
Roll me up in your heart
Aw, make it seem real
I’m clay in your hands
I’m the ball in you game
I’ve been loving you forever but I never knew your name

Oh Jesus I love you
And I love Buddha too
Ramakrishna, Guru Dev
Tao Te Ching and Mohammed
Why do some people say
That there is just one way
To love you God and come to you
We are all a part of you
You are un-nameable
You are unknowable
All we have is metaphor
That’s what time and space are for
Is the universe your thought
You are and you are not
You are many, You are one
Ever ending, Just begun
Alright, alright, alright
I love you and Buddha too
And I love Buddha too
Ramakrishna, Guru Dev
Tao Te Ching and Mohammed

Spinning your umbrella over your head
You should be in bed but you’re here instead
Walking with me towards a midnight swim
I can give you baby what you can’t get from him
Hey, Hey little fighter girl
It’s you and me up against this whole wide world
Sleeping together in the lions den
Got you earrings in my pocket till I see you again
Songbird singing in an old dead tree
The way you drive, honey, scares the hell out of me
Hundred miles an hour on a brand new road
Look at me again you’ll make my heart explode
Hey, Hey little fighter girl
It’s you and me up against this whole wide world
Sleeping together in the lions den
Got you earrings in my pocket till I see you again

Clouds roll by laying up on the hill
Everything is still, do you think we will
If we do there’ll be no turning back
If we don’t, well, there’s no chance of that
Hey, Hey little fighter girl

Cars in the distance, a bicycle bell
Dogs are barking as the kingdom fell
In it’s place stood a golden town
Where people walk without touching the ground
Hey, Hey little fighter girl
It’s you and me now against this whole wide world
Sleeping together in the lions den
Baby, I can’t sleep at all until I see you again
Yeah, yeah, a-yeah, a-yeah

Goodness me, yes I’d agree
I was the one who ended up our history
Well, it looks like you wrote the last page to me
Your friends say you’ve got a new man
Girl, that’s so not cool in so many ways
These were supposed to be my carefree single days
Instead, I’m punching walls and coming up with ways
Ways to win you back from your new man
Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah
Right now he’s a-probably moaning your name
The thought of it is driving me insane
Got to get religion just to ease the pain
of thinking ‘bout you loving your new man
Well, did you get the literature I left in your bed
Told you keep it frozen, it caught fire instead
Have you not heard a single word I’ve said
No, you were busy loving your new man
Goodness garage, his name is probably Rodge
He probably drives a truck
And his hands are probably big
I bet he fixes things around your place when they break
If he says he likes your cooking he’s a fake
Girl, please say he doesn’t tuck his shirts in, please
Please say he doesn’t wear a gold chain, please
Things were going great, I even went on a date
Then I found out about your new man
Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah
Right now he’s a-probably moaning your name
The thought of it is driving me insane
Got to get religion just to ease the pain
of thinking bout you loving your new man
Well, did you get the literature I left in your bed
Told you keep it frozen, it caught fire instead
Have you not heard a single word I’ve said
No, you were busy loving your new man
Aw, come on
Hollie round the tree
That kiss was meant for me
Trust me, he’ll get way too drunk at your Christmas party
Your friends’ll laugh at first
But as the night gets worse
Collectively, they’ll run off your new man
And, who’ll be standing there looking like Fred Astaire
Me, and I’ll be singing
Where, oh where have you been all Fall
while I was having a ball
Certainly, not with your new man
Woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah-woah
Right now he’s a-probably crying your name
The thought of it is driving him insane
Got to find another just to ease the pain
of thinking bout you loving your new man
Well, did you get the messages he left on your phone
Told you that he’s sorry and to please come home
Maybe you’d have answered but, were you alone
No, you were busy loving your new man, right
You were busy loving your new man, me
You were busy loving your new man
That’s right
I was the one who ended up our history
Well, it looks like you wrote the last page to me
Your friends say you’ve got a new man

That’s right
I was born in a gold mine
You were born by the sea
Without nothing we got something
Memphis, Tennessee, girl
Memphis, Tennessee
Rain outside my window
Rain inside my head
Loneliness inside my heart
Emptiness in my bed, girl
Emptiness in my bed
You’ve got the love
That I need
That I’m dreaming of
I was born to love you
You were born to resist
I would give everything I’ve got
To live inside your kiss, girl
To live inside your kiss
You’ve got the love
That I need
That I’m dreaming of
I was born in a gold mine
You were born by the sea
Without nothing we got nothing
Memphis, Tennessee, girl

Memphis, Tennessee, girl

I’m going back to New Orleans
Ain’t turning my back on this world of tears
With a head that’s heavy and a heart that’s sore
Gonna swing my hammer, Gonna stop this war
Dying babies in the sand
Hanging kings in ancient lands
God on God
Blood to bone
Oh, baby, baby
This world is not my home
Ain’t turning my back on this world of tears
With a head that’s heavy and a heart that’s sore
Gonna swing my hammer, Gonna stop this war
Dying babies in the sand
Hanging kings in ancient lands
God on God
Blood to bone
Oh, baby, baby
This world is not my home
How deep is that river
How deep is that river
I don’t wanna know where it’s coming from
I don’t need to know where it’s going to
Before I place my trust in you
I just wanna know how deep
God said to me what he said to the tree
Grow up towards the light and one day you’ll see
My son Jesus what did he say
Love the lord your God and God’ll show you the way
Do unto others like you wanna be done
Look deep in your heart and know that we are one
How deep is that river
How deep is that river
I don’t wanna know how fast it flows
I don’t need to know if it’s safe to swim
Before I put my trust in him
I just wanna know how deep
God came down in the cool of the day
Stirred up the waters and began to play
Before he knew it, Man was on the land
With a thought in his head and a gun in his hand
God saw that Man was just a little too rough
So he gave him a heart and filled it up with love
How deep is that river
How deep is that river, yes
I don’t wanna know if it has a name
I don’t need to know how to cross it yet
Before I get my spirit wet
I just wanna know how deep
A few years back I had lost my way
I was deep in the woods, I began to pray
I came to a river and I sat on it’s bank
It was cool and clear, I have Jesus to thank
I drank that water, Yes I drank it up
Now everyday I come back and fill my cup
How deep is that river
How deep is that river, yes
I don’t wanna know if it’s yours or mine
I don’t need to know if it’s East or West
Before I put my fears to rest
I just wanna know how deep
How deep is that river
How deep is that river, yes
I don’t wanna know where it’s coming from
I don’t need to know where it’s going to
Before I place my trust in you
I just wanna know how deep
I just wanna know how deep
I just wanna know how deep
How deep is that river
I don’t wanna know where it’s coming from
I don’t need to know where it’s going to
Before I place my trust in you
I just wanna know how deep

Grow up towards the light and one day you’ll see

I was born on a railroad track
with the weight of the world strapped to my back
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
Looking for a life in a graveyard town
If you never get lost, you never get found
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
I fell in love with an impossible girl
She was my breath in this strangled world
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
She broke my heart with my best friend’s name
Now my mind still works but it’s not the same
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy

So many people wanna watch things grow
Either they’re blind or they just don’t know
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
My Daddy was done before he turned nineteen
My Momma was run like a fast machine
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
So I cross my heart and I hope to die
Like an aeroplane, baby, coming out of the sky
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy

Where was I before you found me
Who was I and what had bound me
Where was love and understanding
Why was living so demanding
You were on the snow capped mountains
You were in the deep blue ocean
Down below the wind and thunder
In a perfect world of wonder
You were calling come back to me
How long has it been, my only
I was listening and I heard you
When I did I finally found you
Everything you touch is living
This whole universe is giving
What was once inside you dreaming
Is now the life that you are leading
I was with you baby crying
I was there when you were dying
Underneath the sound and silence
In the gospel and in science
Come to me my perfect lover
We are one, there is no other
In every face I see you clearly
Oh my friend I love you dearly
Who was I and what had bound me
Where was love and understanding
Why was living so demanding
You were on the snow capped mountains
You were in the deep blue ocean
Down below the wind and thunder
In a perfect world of wonder
You were calling come back to me
How long has it been, my only
I was listening and I heard you
When I did I finally found you
Everything you touch is living
This whole universe is giving
What was once inside you dreaming
Is now the life that you are leading
I was with you baby crying
I was there when you were dying
Underneath the sound and silence
In the gospel and in science
Come to me my perfect lover
We are one, there is no other
In every face I see you clearly
Oh my friend I love you dearly
When I got off the bus it was six in the evening
Snow was blowing across the intersection
For the last six hours I’d been lost in a book
So it took me a second to remember what I was doing
Standing in the middle of a bustling sidewalk
Under barren branches silhouetted by streetlamps
I reached into my overcoat pocket
And brought out a letter with your address on it
And I may be dreaming but I’ve come to you
I have nowhere else to run
How you gonna say what’s never been said
I’ll tell you how it’s done
You just look into your eyes
You look into your eyes
And follow em down, you gotta follow em down
Till the streets are lined with trees
On the last block there’s a little blue house
It’s the only house I see
And up in the window
A light still shines
Your Daddy showed you what was wrong with life
I wanna show you how to make it right
Hey, hey baby I’m in your city
Tonight
Snow was blowing across the intersection
For the last six hours I’d been lost in a book
So it took me a second to remember what I was doing
Standing in the middle of a bustling sidewalk
Under barren branches silhouetted by streetlamps
I reached into my overcoat pocket
And brought out a letter with your address on it
And I may be dreaming but I’ve come to you
I have nowhere else to run
How you gonna say what’s never been said
I’ll tell you how it’s done
You just look into your eyes
You look into your eyes
And follow em down, you gotta follow em down
Till the streets are lined with trees
On the last block there’s a little blue house
It’s the only house I see
And up in the window
A light still shines
Your Daddy showed you what was wrong with life
I wanna show you how to make it right
Hey, hey baby I’m in your city
Tonight
