Lyrics

Brothers and Sisters of Soul (the final cut)


verse 1
We are climbing the highest pass into the light
We once got it wrong now we're getting it right
I know all of your names for the thunder has spoken
Let your spirit run free now the spell has been broken

verse 2
Watch the lightning streak through the ribbons of rain
The storm crack asunder the Faces of Cain
Will you rise from your knees raise your arms to the sky
or cry out as the old structures crumble and die?

chorus
Once we were young with forever to live
Now all that we have we must learn how to give
Loving arms reaching out to the weary and cold.
As we stand with our brothers and sisters of soul

Verse 3
Now I'm standing with you in this cauldron of fire
The dance of the dervish a'spinning me higher
Cause I love you all now more than I ever did
Back when I didn't know just how high we could bid

Verse 4
By engines of music all stars are now driven
The cosmic heart beats to the funk of the rhythm
Words of the masters spill down from the mountains
as melodies tumble through underground fountains

verse 5
Words are wasted on fools but they gather in pools
for the wise and the strong and the rulers of song.
For the truth cannot flow from the lips of a liar
or those who would speak in the tongues of desire

chorus
And I know once we were young with forever to live
Now all that we have we must learn how to give
Loving arms reaching out to the weary and cold.
As we stand with our brothers and sisters...

Yeah once we were young with forever to live
Now all that we have we must learn how to give
Loving arms reaching out to the weary and cold.
As we stand with our brothers and sisters of soul
