Holy Sunlight Lyrics Holy sunlight, holy rain
Lead me to salvation, holy pain
Oh, my kindred sorrow
Leave me to be sane
Leave me for salvation
The distant Gospel train
Chorus:
Oh, the ocean's deep enough to drown
But I feel the sailboat's close around me
It'll find me
Angels of tomorrow, mothers of today
Bring our world to heaven
But leave me here to stray
Memories have faded
They faded to the sky
Darkness all around me
You know I have to die
Chorus:
Oh, the ocean's deep enough to drown
But I feel the sailboat's close around me
It'll find me, around me
It'll find me, in time
Empty wine bottles, the broken bridge
The salted risen breeze
Pack my luggage, fake a smile
Don't cry, we're all connected like the ocean sea
We're all flowing, like the river
Repeat first verse
Repeat second Chorus
Surround me,
It will find me, in time
Oh the ocean's deep enough to drown...
Story behind the song:
Yeah, I was happy when I wrote that song. I like writing about water. You can't say much further about it, once you've mentioned the word water. There's this quote from someone, I forget where it came from, it says: You don't get wet by the word water. There's kind of a halt, there: I don't give too much information, I leave you to experience it. It's one of those songs that you can close your eyes and trip out to. It's one of my favorites on the album.
