Daniel Lanois - As Tears Roll By lyrics

I've been working downtown inside my troubles I've been working downtown inside my troubles I've been sleeping under the bridge of highway 1 And I don't know who my savior is As tears roll by Oh dear heart I know it's been a long time And the pendulum swings so wide I've been wrestling with the burning spear With the burning spear Don't want to be like this another year As tears roll by I could never see your perfect rainbow Avalanche buried me deep in the snow Murky smoke stack made me fall Cold ambition written on my wall I got mixed up and fell down I got mixed up As years roll by I could be a patriot if I could see But the T.V. talkin' man make no sense to me And I don't know where our savior lives And I don't know where my savior is Building up, building down As tears roll by Gotta keep my spirit out of trouble Keep myself out of trouble But the hands of need are calling me I feel mortality Tumble down, tumble down As years roll by They were building a building like forever Heads buried deep inside a fever The spirit cried out from the ground Sweet, sweet maternal sounds Tumble, tumble, tumble down tumble to the ground As fears roll by As tears roll by, as tears roll by, as tears roll by, as tears roll by
