"When We Are Singing" lyrics
David Byrne & Ghost Train Orchestra Lyrics
When we are singing
I know the way we look
Swimming, drifting, floating on
And everything is true
Everything is true
When we are singing
When we're far away
What were you thinking of
In that distant place?
The look on someone's face
When you turn the pages
I heard you call my name
We've got
One foot in the pearly gates and
One foot in the flames
When we are singing
Can you name that tune?
The words go 'round in circles
But everything is true
Yeah
Everything is true now
When you turn the pages
I heard you call my name
We've got
One foot in the pearly gates and
One foot in the flames
Everything is true, yeah
Everything is true
I know the way we look
Swimming, drifting, floating on
And everything is true
Everything is true
When we are singing
When we're far away
What were you thinking of
In that distant place?
The look on someone's face
When you turn the pages
I heard you call my name
We've got
One foot in the pearly gates and
One foot in the flames
When we are singing
Can you name that tune?
The words go 'round in circles
But everything is true
Yeah
Everything is true now
When you turn the pages
I heard you call my name
We've got
One foot in the pearly gates and
One foot in the flames
Everything is true, yeah
Everything is true
