Elton John, Lulu - The Messenger lyrics
[Elton John, Lulu - The Messenger lyrics]
Everything is settled, immovable and calm
Nothing that has plagued our lives
Can ever do us harm
Then the voices railed against us
Then the path was steep
Now the sounds are softer
Now the road is ended
In your arms, I'll sleep
Turn away from madness, burn the inner light
Pray for me as cheerfully as
I slip into the night
Death is just a visitor watching for a while
Sullen and predictable, love is versatile
Everything is peaceful
And falling into place
I no longer feel the wounds
Suffered in the chase
Then we were at turns divided
Then by turns oppressed
Now the pain is over, now we lie together
Gratefully at rest
Put aside the notion that the end is near
Stay with me eternally, the terrors disappear
Death is just a messenger in a poor disguise
Fooling no one, lost for words
Love is in your eyes
Now we know as we are known
Unimagined things
Death is just the messenger
Love the truth it brings
Nothing that has plagued our lives
Can ever do us harm
Then the voices railed against us
Then the path was steep
Now the sounds are softer
Now the road is ended
In your arms, I'll sleep
Turn away from madness, burn the inner light
Pray for me as cheerfully as
I slip into the night
Death is just a visitor watching for a while
Sullen and predictable, love is versatile
Everything is peaceful
And falling into place
I no longer feel the wounds
Suffered in the chase
Then we were at turns divided
Then by turns oppressed
Now the pain is over, now we lie together
Gratefully at rest
Put aside the notion that the end is near
Stay with me eternally, the terrors disappear
Death is just a messenger in a poor disguise
Fooling no one, lost for words
Love is in your eyes
Now we know as we are known
Unimagined things
Death is just the messenger
Love the truth it brings
