Oh well faith is my brand new story
Its been a long fight, my heart went right out, oh won't bore you any more
Love wasn't my feeling, my type or my kind
Now being good to you is all thats on my mind
And if we make it then we'll be just fine
Maybe you'll be yours and i'll be mine
There's always mischief, oh you know the devil's always prying,
Now being good to you is all thats on my mind
Down
Yes your mind gets like a villain, make you splinter
Sing your heart off walking through some long Russian winter
Crying at the sad stories in the paper and on the news
Then i gather up the scattered blessings
To bring them back to you.
And if we make it then we'll be just fine
Be the first i've known in a long, long time.
Told my sad story to anyone who'd listen,
Now i'm in your heart, talking like Ian Dury, I'll be blissin
Praise be the hands that brought this to work now
Turn it on, switch me on
You took my hand, yes that came first
Turn it on, switch it on
I'm full of song, unrehearsed
Go on and turn it up, turn it on, turn it over
Praise be the hands that brought this to work now
Turn it on, switch it on.
Sing a song that's true
Bring it back to you,
Just sing a song it's true
Bring it back to you
Sing a song, its you, bring it back to you
Lets sing a song that's true
Its been a long fight, my heart went right out, oh won't bore you any more
Love wasn't my feeling, my type or my kind
Now being good to you is all thats on my mind
Maybe you'll be yours and i'll be mine
Now being good to you is all thats on my mind
Down
Sing your heart off walking through some long Russian winter
Crying at the sad stories in the paper and on the news
Then i gather up the scattered blessings
To bring them back to you.
Be the first i've known in a long, long time.
Told my sad story to anyone who'd listen,

Turn it on, switch it on
Go on and turn it up, turn it on, turn it over
Turn it on, switch it on.
Bring it back to you,
Just sing a song it's true
Bring it back to you
Sing a song, its you, bring it back to you

i love this song, his voice is so amazing. I'm not really sure what its all about though.
Not being a [religious] person, I can't say the song meaning in it's obvious terms enthrals me. However, the song is a great one. His voice is amazing indeed.
I dont think this song has anything to do religion. I think it is his way of saying he thinks this person is amazing. Sometimes people give you faith. Faith in... not really sure what but I don't think when people sing of faith they are necessarily talking of god.
ps. great song. great band. they are far too underrated. i thnk they're great
this is actually a song about falling in love, and having faith in yourself to assert your feelings - to have the courage to love someone.
lovely. About faith in love.
