Before These Crowded Streets |
|
Pig |
|
Isn't it strange |
|
How we move our lives for another day |
|
Like skipping a beat |
|
What if a great wave should wash us all away |
|
Just thinking out loud |
|
Don't mean to dwell on this dying thing |
|
But looking at blood |
|
It's alive right now |
|
Deep and sweet within |
|
Pouring through our veins |
|
Intoxicate moving wine to tears |
|
Drinking it deep |
|
Then an evening spent dancing |
|
It's you and me |
|
This love will open our world |
|
From the dark side we can see a glow of something bright |
|
There's much more than we see here |
|
Don't burn the day away |
|
Is this not enough |
|
This blessed sip of life |
|
Is it not enough |
|
Staring down at the ground |
|
Oh then complain and pray more from above |
|
Greedy little pig |
|
Stop just watch your world trickle away |
|
Oh it's your problem now |
|
It'll all be dead and gone in a few short years |
|
Just love will open our eyes |
|
Just love will put the hope in our minds |
|
Much more than we could ever know |
|
Don't burn the day away |
|
Come sister my brother |
|
Shake up your bones shake up your feet |
|
I'm saying open up |
|
And let the rain come pouring in |
|
Wash out this tired notion |
|
That the best is yet to come |
|
But while you're dancing on the ground |
|
Don't think of when you're gone |
|
Love love what more is there |
|
We need the light of love in here |
|
Don't beat your head |
|
Dry your eyes |
|
Let the love in there |
|
There are bad times |
|
But that's ok |
|
Just look for love in it |
|
Don't burn the day away |
|
Look |
|
Here are we |
|
On this starry night staring into space |
|
And I must say |
|
I feel as small as dust |
|
Lying down here |
|
What point could there be troubling |
|
Head down wondering what will become of me |
|
Why concern we cannot see |
|
But no reason to abandon it |
|
Time is short but that's all right |
|
Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night |
|
Take your hands from your eyes, my love |
|
Everything must end some time |
|
Don't burn the day away |
|
Come sister my brother |
|
Shake up your bones shake up your feet |
|
I'm saying open up |
|
And let the rain come flooding in |
|
Wash out this tired notion |
|
That the best is yet to come |
|
But while you're dancing on the ground |
|
Don't think of when you're gone |
|
Love love what more is there |
|
We need the light of love in here |
|
Don't beat your head |
|
Dry your eyes |
|
Let the love in there |
|
There are bad times |
|
But that's ok |
|
Just look for love in it |
