treasure of the broken land Songtext
von Chagall Guevara

I see you now and then in dreams
Your voice sounds just like it used to
I know you better than I knew you then
All I can say is I love you

I thought our days were commonplace
Thought they would number in millions
Now there′s only the aftertaste
Of circumstance that can't pass this way again

Treasure of the broken land
Parched earth, give up your captive ones
Waiting wind of Gabriel
Blow soon upon the hollow bones

I saw the city at its tortured worst
You were outside the walls there
You were relieved of a lifelong thirst
I was dry at the fountain


I knew that you could see my shame
But you were eyeless and sparing
I awoke when you called my name
I felt the curtain tearing

I awoke when you called my name
I felt the curtain tearing

Treasure of the broken land
Parched earth, give up your captive ones
Waiting wind of Gabriel
Blow soon upon the hollow bones

All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon

I can melt the clock hands down
But only in my memory
Nobody gets the second chance
To be the friend that they meant to be

I see you now and then in dreams
Your voice sounds just like it used to
I believe that I will hear it again
God how I love you


Treasure of the broken land
Parched earth, give up your captive ones
Waiting wind of Gabriel
Blow soon upon the hollow bones

Treasure of the broken land
Parched earth, give up your captive ones
Waiting wind of Gabriel
Blow soon upon the hollow bones
Blow soon upon the hollow bones

All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon

All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon

All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon
All the way to Macon...
