Dave Matthews Band and Dave Matthews - One Sweet World lyrics

rate me

Nine planets round the sun

Only one does the sun embrace

Upon this watered one

So much we take for granted

So let us sleep outside tonight

Lay down in our mother's arms

For here we can rest safely

If green should turn to grey

Would our hearts still bloody beat

If a mountain tumbled away, river dried

Would it stop the stepping feet

Whoa, let us sleep outside tonight

Lay down in our mother's arms

For here we can rest safely

(Whoa, yes we can)

Take all that we can get

When it's done

Nobody left to bury here

Nobody left to dig the holes

And here we can rest safely

{Oh, yes we can, in blood and water)

One sweet world

Around this star is spinning

One sweet world

And in her breath I'm swimming

And here I will rest in peace
