THE WATERBOYS - NECTAR (7 DAYS) lyrics

rate me

The nectar flowed for seven days

Seven sweet days

As if a cloak of wild and deep emotion

Urgent, thrilling, enveloped and intoxicated me

And in the centre a huge, pumping, ball of fire

My heart

Love has changed my life

Love has changed my life

Nights I lay awake, pinned and thrilled, to my bed

In sanctuary I sat wrapped

Super-alive, listening

At work I thrived

Tired but not tired.

Alert, compassionate, driven

And love, the driver

Love has changed my life

Love has changed my life

Yes, love was the lord of all-ness

And love aflame the nectar

And love unconditional the trigger, the initiator

The nectar flowed for seven days

Then river-like sped underground again

Leaving me the same, but not the same

Empty, but not empty

Unchanged, but changed

Love has changed my life

Love has changed my life

Love has changed my life!

Love has changed my life!

Yes...
