I got to strong arms
Blessings of Babylon
With time to carry on
And try
For sins and false alarms
So to America the brave
wise men say
Near a tree by a river
there's a hole in the ground
where an old man of aran
goes around and around
and his mind is a beacon
in the veil of the night
for a strange kind of fashion
there's a wrong and a right
but he'll never, never fight over you
I got plans for us
nights in the scullery
and days instead of me
I only know what to discuss
O for anything but light
wise men fighting over you
It's not me you see
pieces of valentine
with just a song of mine
to keep from burning history
seasons of gasoline and gold
wise men fold
Near a tree by a river
there's a hole in the ground
where an old man of aran
goes around and around
and his mind is a beacon
in the veil of the night
for a strange kind of fashion
there's a wrong and a right
but he'll never, never fight over you
I got time to kill
sly looks in corridors
without a plan of yours
a blackbird sings on bluebird hill
wise mens child
Near a tree by a river
there's a hole in the ground
where an old man of aran
goes around and around
and his mind is a beacon
in the veil of the night
for a strange kind of fashion
there's a wrong and a right
but he'll never, never fight
Near a tree by a river
there's a hole in the ground
where an old man of aran
goes around and around
and his mind is a beacon
in the veil of the night
for a strange kind of fashion
there's a wrong and a right
but he'll never, never fight over you
but he'll never, never fight over you
Blessings of Babylon
With time to carry on
And try
For sins and false alarms
So to America the brave
wise men say
Near a tree by a river
there's a hole in the ground
where an old man of aran
goes around and around
and his mind is a beacon
in the veil of the night
for a strange kind of fashion
there's a wrong and a right
but he'll never, never fight over you
I got plans for us

and days instead of me
I only know what to discuss
O for anything but light
wise men fighting over you
