Chris Cornell - Reach Down lyrics
[Chris Cornell - Reach Down lyrics]
I had a dream the other night
You were in a bar in the corner on a chair
Wearing a long white leather coat
Purple glasses and glitter in your hair
And you said hey this is where I'm gonna sit
And buy you a drink someday
You were going to the dog shows
But, you kinda lost your way
You say now I got all this room
And no money to decorate it, so some
Local customer put me in touch with the man
Upstairs, he said little man
You got no business gettin' frustrated
You gotta rest
You gotta rest you gotta reach down
And pick the crowd up
Carry back in your hands
To the promised land
Now I had some angel shine my wings, she said
Nothin' but the best for the golden boy
She made me promise not to
Tell I had her under
A spell singing golden words
In a broken voice
And I caught some blessing on the wind
I'm feeling lighter than a
Whisper from a dove
I've got no hands to tie behind my back
And I'm sparking like a heart attack
Now I've got room to spread my wings
And my messages of love, yes love was my drug
But that's not what I died of
So don't think of me crying louder
Than some billion dollar baby cause I gotta
Rest I gotta rest I gotta
Reach down and pick the crowd up
Carry back in my hand to the promised land
You were in a bar in the corner on a chair
Wearing a long white leather coat
Purple glasses and glitter in your hair
And you said hey this is where I'm gonna sit
And buy you a drink someday
You were going to the dog shows
But, you kinda lost your way
You say now I got all this room
And no money to decorate it, so some
Local customer put me in touch with the man
Upstairs, he said little man
You got no business gettin' frustrated
You gotta rest
You gotta rest you gotta reach down
And pick the crowd up
Carry back in your hands
To the promised land
Now I had some angel shine my wings, she said
Nothin' but the best for the golden boy
She made me promise not to
Tell I had her under
A spell singing golden words
In a broken voice
And I caught some blessing on the wind
I'm feeling lighter than a
Whisper from a dove
I've got no hands to tie behind my back
And I'm sparking like a heart attack
Now I've got room to spread my wings
And my messages of love, yes love was my drug
But that's not what I died of
So don't think of me crying louder
Than some billion dollar baby cause I gotta
Rest I gotta rest I gotta
Reach down and pick the crowd up
Carry back in my hand to the promised land
