Stranger With a Black Dove
Lights are burning
Flames are swimming
Through the minds
Of those who think they're learning
Making use of false proposals
You would stoop to watch the music going on
In the minds of people who are coming, going
Everywhere but never home
But in the shadow of the night
You'll never see what I am like
'Cause I'm the one who'll take you where you're going
I'm a river that has gone across your land
I'm a stranger with a black dove in my hand
If your ceiling filled with rumbling
Felt the pain of pictures falling to the ground
Then that floor which shields your ceiling
Hides your cities far and near and would drown
But in the shadow of the night
You'll never see what I am like
'Cause I'm the one who'll take you where you're going
I'm a river that has gone across your land
I'm a stranger with a black dove in my hand
Lights are burning
Flames are swimming
Through the minds
Of those who think they're learning
Flames are swimming
Through the minds
Of those who think they're learning
Making use of false proposals
You would stoop to watch the music going on
In the minds of people who are coming, going
Everywhere but never home
But in the shadow of the night
You'll never see what I am like
'Cause I'm the one who'll take you where you're going
I'm a river that has gone across your land
I'm a stranger with a black dove in my hand
If your ceiling filled with rumbling
Felt the pain of pictures falling to the ground
Then that floor which shields your ceiling
Hides your cities far and near and would drown
But in the shadow of the night
You'll never see what I am like
'Cause I'm the one who'll take you where you're going
I'm a river that has gone across your land
I'm a stranger with a black dove in my hand
Lights are burning
Flames are swimming
Through the minds
Of those who think they're learning
