Sweep Of Days

Blue Foundation Sweep Of Days Lyrics
1.History

History is just beginning
It's like leaves creating a canopy
And, woven in the tapestry, my testimony
A ceremony of souls, a symphony of sounds of sounds and forms
A cacophony ?I'll keep that energy

I'll keep that energy flowing through the whole range of me
So you can focus on the rage in me
And my obituary?
Well, I'm re-writing it every second, every century
Well, I'm re-writing it

History is just beginning


2.As I Moved On

Come and dance, come

I was all alone, going for a ride
Travelling solo, off my guard
I had to follow this calling from the wild
Into the shadows
Into the shadows of my heart

I needed all my strength to
Stand up to your agenda
I said it, I said it again
I never wanna become
Stuck in your machine
I said it, I said it again

Come and dance, come

And as I moved on, thought I blow my mind
But as it turned out, I was wrong
I met my sorrow, saw her in the eyes
She tried my courage
She tried my courage, but left me stronger

(You better stand up straight and you gotta be strong
You gotta fight for your right and reclaim your own song)

I needed all my strength to
Stand up to your agenda
I said it, I said it again
I never wanna become
Stuck in your machine
I said it, I said it again

Come and dance, come


3.End of the Day(Silence)

Silence
Stretching out between us
I dream of a presence
With essence
And absence of doubt

Come closer
Come and stay with me now
Help me reconcile
Come and stay a while

And I will find a home
Because we love till the end
We love till the end of the day
Of the day

Distant
Shifty-eyed and restless
I dream of a presence
With essence
And absence of doubt

Come closer
Come and stay with me now
Help me reconcile
Come and stay a while

And I will find a home
Because we love till the end
We love till the end of the day
Of the day

6.Embers

A western sky is glowing
Calling off the day
Fading rays of live sunsets
Caressing my feet on my way

A shade in the horizon
Quivers in the haze
Whisper near right by my ear
And these are the words that he said:

If you love your woman up to the maximum
Tell her fi hold on, hold on strong

Orange eyes of embers
Gleaming in the night
Guard us until break of dawn
Blessing the ground where we stay

The eastern sky is glowing now
In reddish shades of grey
With promises of life and love
And I wanna cherish the day

If you love your woman up to the maximum
Tell her fi hold on, hold on strong


7.Bonfires

I was given wine
We're feeling okay
And quite all right
You wash my tears away
And make me wanna stay
And bonfires lit up the shores

(Wa fa fa-wey)
To go beside you
Is where I want to be
(Wa fa fa-wey)
To laugh, to love

Days of roses and wine
Drifting astray
With your hand in mine
You stroke my fears away
And make me wanna stay
And bonfires lit up the shores

(Wa fa fa-wey)
To go beside you
Is where I want to be
(Wa fa fa-wey)
To laugh, to love

(Wa fa fa-wey)
Where to go and hide?
We e going to the sea
(Wa fa fa-wey)
To laugh, to love

And this is how it went;
I am here to stay
Roaring with the wind
There's life within

This is what I give
A circle is complete
Another circle spins
There's life within
Within


8.Yellow Man

YOU KNOW?
CRAZY JAPANESE
MY FRIEND

STONE STONE STONE














9.Shine

I tend to be
Stuck in minor key
Then pale monotony
Holds me down

But luckily
You are so dear to me
In your charity
I go home

I'm so sorry
This melancholy
Holds me down

But luckily
You are so dear to me
In your charity
I go home


10.Save This Town

Come around to this fine town
Where freedom makes the world go round
And where dreams are found
And carried out

Even in the afternoon
You can go there fishing for the moon
And the fairy lights
Glow like fireflies

Come on save it
Come on save it
Every single one
Come on save it
Come on save this town

Growing from diversity
Out of true originality
It's the place to be
And that's why

I fear the need to standardise
And I fear the guys with normal eyes
It's a precious child
Come give it a try

And we try
Every single one
Come on save it
Come on save this town

I know that we can't save this town alone
So this is why I say
Come on and raise your voice
And spread these words around:

Come on save it
Come on save it
Every single one
Come on save it
Come on save this town


11.Sweep

The floor you walk on is smooth. There is no ground there.
Magic begins with blood. Outside, there are trees,
With concrete under their roots. But I have passed the tombs of
kings,
Regaled them with pacing, checked bins for food and wrappings.
I have scoured the seas for miles, cloaked my face with ash.
My fingertips opening, accepting my time.

The dark cylinders of half-smoked cigarettes
For me, I'm your sorrow
Calling in your dreams
For me, I'm your shadow
Howling in the streets

Tomorrow, I will walk the streets
And steel myself for the familiar. Your eyes
Will not settle, a hunger. You'll be happier in your grave.
When we meet, share stories, you stretch me. I see,
I see a semi-circle of teeth.

The dark cylinders of half-smoked cigarettes
For me, I'm your sorrow
Calling in your dreams
For me, I'm your shadow
Howling in the streets


12.My Day

As we're nearer to the end;
Here we are again
Seems like we're always working
At this time of year

We have come a long way, my friend
How many hours we have spent
Seems like we're always working
At this time

This is my day
And I wanted you to know
This is my day
And I'm gonna be okay

Through the steady sweep of days
Keeping focus as the currents race
Seems like we're always working
At this time

This is my day
And I wanted you to know
This is my day
And I'm gonna be okay
