Dead Can Dance - Spirit lyrics

rate me

I thought I'd found a reason to live

Just like before when I was a child

Only to find dreams made of sand

Would just fall apart and slip through my hands

But the spirit of life keeps us strong

And the spirit of life is the will to carry on

Adversity what have I done to you

To cause this reclusive silence

That has come between me and you

And the spirit of life remains in light

And the spirit of life remains inside

I never thought it would be quite like this

Living outside of mutual bliss

But as long as the veins in our arm still stand up

The spirit of life will keep living on
