Daniel Lanois - Power Of One lyrics

rate me

In the middle of the night it came to me A bridge to your ecstasy Images of a burned out hell You comin' in with your mission bell Don't sit, waiting for the thing to come Get lit, feel the power of one Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit, feel the power of one Little sister let's go downtown and dance to the night sounds Hear the bass wafting down the hill From Echo Park, my Jamaica in L.A. Don't sit, waiting for the thing to come get lit feel the power of one Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit feel the power of one It's in the shadows, in the sweet scent breeze In the riding out of a death disease The prettiness shining into complete In the bitterness burning up in the heat Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit feel the power of one Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit feel the power of one I was drowning in champagne eyes Skipping along in compromise When dignity rattled me on the back And my rebel mind needed to attack Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit feel the power of the one Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit feel the power of the one My sweetness you were with me when I was sad at an evolution bend hiding alone like a rolling stone Now I wanna know the power of your home Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit feel the power of one Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Get lit feel the power of one Don't sit waiting for the thing to come Laugh in the face of a hundred planet guns
