Caedmons Call

Caedmons Call - Where I Began lyrics

The grass looked greener on the other side

So I tried to, snatch myself from your hand

Caught a boat to anywhere but Nineveh

And, well you know, I got spit back on dry land.

Verse 1:

Give me purity and give me continence

But oh no, not yet.

Like a coin hiding in the corner

Trying not to be swept

And I was trying not to be swept.

Kicking against these goads

Sure did cut up my feet

And didn't your hands get bloody

As you washed them clean (you washed them!),

Chorus:

Here I am again, back where I began

Try as I may I can't get away from you

And all of these roads lead me to roam,

Bring me back home.

Here I am again, back where I began.

Verse 2:

So you have yourself your ninety nine (ninety nine),

Isn't that enough for you?

Still you followed me to the shadowed valley

Carried me on your shoulders too.

I've done the work of Sisyphus

Thinking that I could get over this hill

But the one thing I can't get over now...(is the)

Is the force of your will.

Chorus x2
