Being Baptised 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
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
Words of joy and sounds of sorrow
I woke up soaked to the bone
Was I being drowned or baptised?
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
Words of joy and sounds of sorrow
I woke up soaked to the bone
Was I being drowned or baptised?
Words of joy and sounds of sorrow
