Chapter & Verse (Ione's Song) Songtext
von Hiss Golden Messenger

If there′s an omen in the sky
If there's a darkness, you don′t recognize
Yeah, call on me in this world of woe
Yeah, it's a long, yeah, a long time

Yeah, quick to lose, but hard to gain
All I've got to give you are these songs I sing
So tell me true, ain′t that enough?
It′s a long, yeah, a long time


But at the moment, yeah, the sun is shining right on me
And the road is shimmering in the haze
Oh, Ione, yeah, your daddy's just as dark as can be
But I can be your little rainbow too

I′ve been the last
I've been the first
Oh, I′ve read the book chapter and verse
I've lived through times when almost wasn′t good enough
And It's a long, yeah, a long time

And I've been bound
And I′ve been free
Well, I′ve split the road beneath my two feet
Oh, I've heard laughter like coins in a cup
It′s a long, yeah, long time
Yeah, it's a long, yeah, long time
