Waterboys lyrics

I woke up in the morning Stripped down my sheets I put on my clothes, stepped into my shoes Tumbled into the street The daylight was shimmering And the ghost of a breeze Was rattling flagpoles And whispering through the trees That was the river This is the sea I went down to the station I ran all across town But the streets were all empty and the markets were closed There was no-one around I wandered like a phantom down alleys and passageways Heavy with history I heard nothing but silence Silently saying to me That was the river This is the sea Found myself at the highway Trucks thundering by Pillars and pylons Pointing away up at the sky Cars hissing like visions Bikes buzzing like bees Freight hurtling and moving But not moving me That was the river This is the sea I slipped into the cathedral It was quiet and cool The air was humming with incense The windows were studded with jewels There was a stained glass image of jesus Shining in front of me Haloed and bleeding, surrounded by children And shining in front of me And as I walked out I was still saying that was the river I was still saying this is the sea I went down to the harbour Stepped out in the rain With a song in my head And the blood pounding in my veins I went down to the harbour Fell on my knee For at the end of all roaming I found you in me That was the river This is the sea Get This Ringtone
