Lyrics

Please welcome back–
 The one and only–
 Mr. Van Morrison to Montreux!
 ♪
 Feel like l can't get over
 The white cliffs of Dover
 When I don't know what to do
 Baby, see me through
 Well, I've been too long in this storm
 It's so sad and forlorn
 And perhaps I'm counting on you
 Wanna see me through
 When I think of that dear rugged cross
 Where the dear saviour gave his all
 Feel like all romance is gone
 See me through
 
 See me through the days of wine and roses
 Why don't you see me through one day?
 Just one day at a time
 When I'm already stoned
 Cup is full but it's so empty inside
 Why don't you see what you can do?
 When you see me through
 ♪
 See me through the days of wine, wine and roses
 Oh, won't you see me through one day, one day at a time?
 When I'm already gone
 My cup is full but it's so empty inside
 Why don't you see what you can do?
 When you see me through
 And let's– (someday, one day)
 Someday, baby (someday, one day)
 (Someday, one day) soldier of fortune
 Soldier of fortune
 Caught up in a crazy and mixed up world
 Have to make my getaway
 One day at a time
 One day at a time
 Soldier of fortune
 Caught up in a crazy world
 Have to make my getaway
 One day at a time
 ♪
 Goin' up that mountainside
 Where the water runs crystal clear
 Goin' up that mountainside
 Where the water runs crystal clear
 But down in the city
 Down below
 I got a house on the hill
 Money in the bank
 Cars in the driveway
 Colored TVs in every room
 I got mobile phones
 I got computer programs
 I got virtual reality
 Virtual reality
 But I'm still goin' up that mountainside
 But down in the city
 Down below
 
 Goin' up that mountainside
 ♪
 Where the water runs crystal clear
 ♪
 Turn around
 Hand on my shoulder
 Turn around
 Hand on my shoulder
 And you sayin'
 You sayin'
 You sayin'
 I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again
 I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again
 I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again
 I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again
 I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again
 (I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again, thank you baby)
 I wanna thank you for lettin' me be myself again
 And then, I'm gonna take you down–
 To the burning ground
 And you changed me up
 And you turned it around
 In the wind and rain
 I'm gonna see you again
 In the morning sun
 And when the day is done
 And you take my hand
 And you walk with me
 And sometimes it feels
 Like eternity
 And you turn the tide
 I get back my pride
 And you make me proud
 Won't you say it out loud?
 When I take you down
 To the burning ground
 When I take you down, child
 To the burning ground
 And I take you down
 By the factory
 And I show you like
 It has to be
 And you understand, you did
 How the work gets done
 And I pick up the sack!
 In the midday sun
 And I pull you through
 By the skin of your teeth
 And I lift the veil
 And see what's underneath
 And you return to me!
 And I slide on my throne
 And you make me feel
 Like I'm not alone
 On the day I die
 To the burning ground, child
 Wanna take you down
 To the burning ground
 ♪
 And you made me think
 What it's all about
 Sometimes I know
 We gon' work it out
 And I watch you run
 In the crimson sun
 Sell my shadow pipe
 Open up my heart
 And I watch you run
 Down on your bended knees
 By the burnt out well
 Won't you tell me, please?
 Between heaven and hell
 When I take you down
 To the burning ground
 When I take you down, child
 To the burning ground
 And you kneel and pray
 When you hear that sound
 Yeah, we're walking back
 To the burial mound
 And you shake your head
 And you turn it around
 Can you see the flames
 From the burning ground?
 ♪
 And I take the Jute!
 And I throw him down
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 And I take the Jute!
 And I throw him down
 On the burning ground
 (The burning ground)
 And I take the Jute!
 And I throw him down
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground (Mr. Van Morrison!)
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground (Mr. Van Morrison!)
 On the burning ground (Let me hear you Montreux!)
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground
 On the burning ground (Thank you!)
 (Mr. Brian Kennedy!)
 (Thank you Montreux!)
 (Thank you!)
 (Van Morrison!)
