river of brightness şarkı sözü

words and music by roddy frame

at the end of it all,
´neath the moon´s watchful eye,
i wanna be judged next to you
´cos to the beat of my heart,
you set a small revolution,
no one ever touched me so surely
it´s a veil drawn aside

and revealed is the real world,
and it feels like my world
from the ring on your finger
so cold on my skin,
to the diamond-light stars long ago
the river of brightness flows

on the end of the pier,
saw the sun slidin´ down,
on the dyin´ embers of an empire
see their faces appear,
everyone who was ever sold out and laid low,
their voices submerged
in the sound of a choir
we´ve got time on our side...

and revealed is the real world,
and it feels like my world
from the crystal cold winter,
so petrified and numb
that the blazing-bright sun overthrows,
the river of brightness flows

see, it starts with a glint
of a sparkle in the eyes,
and a breath becomes a word becomes a deed
and if the deed is done right,
the whole world´s set alight,
but if you hesitate it goes,
and you´re damnin´ up the river
just to figure how it flows,
if that´s the price of knowin´,
maybe i don´t wanna know

´cos it feels like the real world,
and it feels like our world
from the ring on your finger,
so cold on my skin
to the diamond-light stars long ago,
the river of brightness flows.
