Jann Halexander - Obama lyrics
rate meA leading light cried shiny beautiful tears in the night
Joyful faces saw an hope lightening
Hard to explain, irresistible, fragile
But millions of hearts are dancing&
From Europe to Africa, from Oceania to America
We saw someone looking like the Messiah,
As a new Christ, maybe a new God,
He couldnt be only Human&
When Reason cant help us, when it gives in to deep weakness,
Then we cling to a beautiful poor hope
But hes just a man
Just a man&
Obama...Obama....Obama...Obama
Beautiful visionary, be the beast or be eaten,
Beautiful destiny, your courage impressed us,
And I want to believe,
and to keep this mirror that you showed to our awful world,
Because vultures are keeping an eye too
on the mixed man who challenged old-fashioned rules,
And secrets that were buried during centuries and taught to children,
Shall you change the deal, or my singing is misled !
I want your name to be carved on an eternal stele,
as big as our human illusions are,
because youre just a man
but such a beautiful man&
Obama...Obama...Obama...OBama!
