Paroles de Once This Year

Why sing so long all good is gone Down below my soul is so low Crowned extolled behold love still grows Herod this day all young children slain If only once this year you could part your hands from older fears When you think of what remains If only once tonight you would shake your head in real delight When you think of what remains Is it strange, is it strange Is it strange in a world of animals That the kings are cannibals anyway Is it strange, is it strange Is it strange that the earth was split in two Separating old from new anyway And here at night I was waiting for I am waiting for the field to fill with light Here at night I was waiting for I am waiting for I am waiting for you You're invited to never feel the same You, you're invited to hear the new refrain
