Blind Guardian - Precious Jerusalem lyrics

rate me

no doubt

doubt

no longer need to hide it

I've found out who I am

I'm moved around in circles

I rise and fall again

I know it well

every word I tell

seems to make no sense at all

words will heal it

love will conquer the

hearts of the hopeless

the almighty is still alive

risin' up from the heart of the desert

risin' up for jerusalem

risin' up from the heat of the desert

building up old jerusalem

risin' up from the heart of the desert

risin' up for jerusalem

risin' up from the heat of the desert

heading out for jerusalem

I've gone beyond but there's no life

and there is nothing how it seems

I've gone beyond but there's no life

there is no healing rain in eden

the empty barren waisted paradise

let's celebrate the dawning of the son

I turn to you oh my precious jerusalem

deny your prophets their passion

and treat them like fools

i turn to you oh my poor old jerusalem

deny my love but you can't change fate

son of man

you truly are mine

can't stand the pain

no more grief and misery

it goes on and on and on and on

and on and on and on

father stop it now

we must stop it now

you really think you are half way up

I would not mind if you were right

it's not sure

I'd rather say you are half way down

so I am going to help you

if I can

I've been caught

in wilderness

in wilderness

I've got out well

i found myself

in desert lands

in desert lands

in desert lands

but you've been on my mind

I turn to you oh my precious jerusalem

deny your prophets their passion

and treat them like fools

i turn to you oh my poor old jerusalem

deny my love but you can't change truth

rise up and follow me

cause I will bring the light

rise up and follow me

wake up and clear you mind

I tried to bring it back

the seed of life

I tried to bring it back

the seal of light

so if you say there's no faith in man

you'd better keep in mind

that I can read between the lines

my heavy burden brings

eyesight to the blind

I've been caught

in wilderness

in wilderness

I've got out well

i found myself

in desert lands

in desert lands

in desert lands

but you've been on my mind

I turn to you oh my precious jerusalem

deny your prophets their passion

and treat them like fools

i turn to you oh my poor old jerusalem

deny my love but you can't change me
