River and Rapids Searched far and wide Streams ripe with warm gold I follow you Lover I told you You'll never find Down in the hollow Blood on the vine Passage through mountains Ten Million years Gold lines a deep seam Time will reveal River and Rapids Searched far and wide Streams deep in wet snow No sign of you

Won't you take me down to New York Town Won't you take me down to Baghdad Town The Walls are falling down I hear the Sound Won't you take me down to Gaza Town Won't you take me down to Beirut Town The Walls are falling down I Feel the Sound People come and go and don't they know Paradise is Now it's all around It's all around I hear the Sound, I Feel the Sound I Feel it Now Won't you take me down to New York Town Won't you take me down to Beirut Town

Angry guns go off around us Force a change get behind us Black, Beige, White Green, Red, Blue Black, Beige, White Dance, Sing, Fight

All I wanna know Is will you take me In an elevator to the third floor Down to your Alligator Drop me on your shoes Candle Light my Blues There's a stage, a little stage Where we can be alone, in front of everyone There's a finer line between your shoes mama There's a finer time, a lemonade line And our wet tongues are like Alligators are like Alligators, are like Alligators
6.
Three long days till the coming of the sun Once I slept you were watching over me Then I woke there was water passing by House of Sticks, O' House of Straw House of Sticks, O' House of Straw Three Long days till the coming of the Sun Three Long days till the coming of the Sun
7.
Rained all day, rained all night and we wait, waiting for the light Onto the sand we run Into the sea we race....
