I have to admit here, I am definitely a bit confused. I just now listened to this song from the album, 'The Rhythm of the Saints'.
The lyrics posted here do not look anything at all like what I was just now listening to:
Begin again
No easy trick without a guide or walking stick
Begin before the bells of twilight peal
Downhill town
The road ahead
Spiral, as a serpent's bed
A teaspoon of desire for my meal
I trade my tears
To ask the Lord
For proof of love
If only for the consolation
Of gazing at the stars above
Amen, amen, amen
The road is steep
The air is thin
I hear a voice inside my skin
Don't be afraid
Your days won't end with night
Feel the sun
Drink the rain
Let your body heal its pain
Bathe beneath a waterfall of light
I trade my tears
To ask the Lord
For proof of love
If only for the explanation
That tells me what my dreams are made of
Amen, amen
The valley below
An ocean of debris
I ask the Lord for proof of love
Love is all I seek
Love is all I seek
And when at times my words desert me
Music is the tongue I speak
I rest my head beside a white oak tree
No deadly nightshade, Belladonna
Dare lay a leaf on me
Silent night
Still as prayer
Darkness fills with light
Love on Earth is everywhere
Can someone please help me out here. I was thinking that I heard a line about how Simon had been likening the concept of FAITH to an island in the setting sun (which is actually absolute BS in reality) ....... and then he went on to say that PROOF is the bottom line ------ BLAH BLAH BLAH ------- MORE BS. He couldn't be further from the truth (Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. -Hebrews 11:1).
But what song are the lyrics posted here representing? They are obviously representing a completely different song than the one called 'Proof'.
