About the Artist
Lyrics
I can close my eyes Go back to the start and hear the noise In the city that the rain tried to destroy I can walk in the room And bring the sunshine with me Bring the darkness down on this town I woke up singing a song Words of joy and sounds of sorrow I woke up soaked to the bone Was I being drowned or baptised Praying like an angel And playing like the devil I can make you breathe, I can make you cry My music walks in perfect time With a freedom that breaks the lie Of a promise that could never keep its word I woke up singing a song Words of joy and sounds of sorrow I woke up soaked to the bone Was I being drowned or baptised I woke up singing a song Words of joy and sounds of sorrow
