Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - The Road to Babylon lyrics
[Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - The Road to Babylon lyrics]
We lay down and wept and wept for these I am
We remember, we remember
We remember these I am
By the waters, the waters of Babylon
We lay down and wept and wept for these I am
We remember, we remember
We remember these I am
A golden helmet blinded minds
Among ten thousand swords along
The road to Babylon
A golden thunder silenced songs
Among ten thousand voices on
The road to Babylon
Well, well, well beware that golden helmet
(Well, well, well) there's no easy way to go
(Well, well, well) no easy road to follow
(Well, well, well)
A golden ocean turned to fire
And burned ten thousand ships along
The road to Babylon
A golden dreamer touched the sky
Alone in empty silence on the road to Babylon
(Well, well, well)
Beware that golden thunder
(Well, well, well)
That dreamed and sang the song
(Well, well, well) the empty sound of sorrow
(Well, well, well)
A golden helmet blinded minds
Among ten thousand swords along
The road to Babylon
A golden thunder silenced songs
Among ten thousand voices on
The road to Babylon
(Well, well, well) beware that golden helmet
(Well, well, well) there's no easy way to go
(Well, well, well) no easy road to follow
(Well, well, well)
