Gloria (Maitreya's Song) Songtext
von Terence Trent D’Arby

Ladies and Gentlemen: ′the man of a thousand years'

I′ve been around for thousands of our years
And walked a lonely trail
Floated on rivers of our tears
And love was not for sale
Then I met a she
And found my remedy!

But he's in love with her
And she's allergic to the way I feel

She
Is gentle like the breeze
That knocks me to my knees
And her name is Gloria
And I′d have never known this heart at all


She
Is peaceful like the waves
That whisper Jesus saves
And her name is Gloria
And I′d have never known this heart at all
I'd have never known this heart at all without her

I tried to trade all my camels for
Just a little more rain
And wore my stains as my stepping stones
To justify the pain
Then I met a she
And found my remedy

But he′s in love with her
And she's allergic to the way I feel

She
Arouses love in me
Her birds fly through my trees
Singing songs of Gloria
And I′d have never known this heart at all

She
Is peaceful like the stars
Who play their own guitars
And her name is Gloria
And I'd have never known this heart at all
I′d have never known this heart at all without her


But he's in love with her
And she's allergic to the way I feel

She
Is gentle like the breeze
That knocks me to my knees
And her name is Gloria
And I′d have never known this heart at all

She
Is peaceful like the waves
That whisper Jesus saves
And her name is Gloria
And I′d have never known this heart at all
I'd have never known this heart at all without her
