Leave behind the dog
|
Leave behind the God
|
Believe me when I say
|
There's a danger comin' our way
|
It's been lovely travellin' this way
|
Thanks to the sun, the moon, the night and the day
|
|
But the sea can no longer wait
|
The levy's about to break
|
There's a child that's been built for today
|
And it can see only miles away
|
|
We'll follow it through the dawn and the day
|
And it will teach us to forget how to pray
|
|
And we'll follow behind in the ground
|
And the sea will be the only sound
|
|
It's been rainin' every day
|
Does this mean you're gonna stay?
|
|
And the feelin' is comin' around
|
Like we were never meant to walk this ground
|
And why does love forget every day
|
And leave me on my knees
|
At my own grave
|
|
It's been lovely travelin' this floor
|
I hope your love was never too sure
|
|
Leave behind the dog
|
Leave behind the God
|
Believe me when I say
|
There's a danger comin' our way
|
