Strange Waters

Lyrics

I've seen a high cairn kissed by holy wind
 ♪
 Seen a mirror pool cut by golden fins
 ♪
 Seen alleys where they hide the truth of cities
 ♪
 The mad whose blessing you must accept without pity
 ♪
 I've stood in airports guarded glass and chrome
 ♪
 Walked rifled roads and landmined loam
 ♪
 Seen a forest in flames right down to the road
 ♪
 Burned in love till I've seen my heart explode
 ♪
 You've been leading me
 ♪
 Beside strange waters
 ♪
 Across the concrete fields of man
 ♪
 Sun ray like a camera pans
 ♪
 Some will run and some will stand
 ♪
 Everything is bullshit but the open hand
 ♪
 You've been leading me
 ♪
 Beside strange waters
 ♪
 Streams of beautiful lights in the night
 ♪
 But where is my pastureland in these dark valleys?
 ♪
 If I loose my grip, will I take flight?
 ♪
 You've been leading me
 ♪
 Beside strange waters
 ♪
 Streams of beautiful lights in the night
 ♪
 But where is my pastureland in these dark valleys?
 ♪
 If I loose my grip, will I take flight?
