I took the long way home, love Over the shatter of bone And cities of campfire ash Stood in the dying light, love Trying to make my mind up Couldn't we never go back?
Time is all we need now But it doesn't need our spurn It feeds upon the cautiousness of man
I don't wanna wait for a messenger to come Lead us to the great white surface of the sun tonight
And the donkey made through from the bell tower And it came with a raft for the Black Sea And shrouded my heart in a Golden Fleece And I trampled hard coals to a diamond Left from the deck of a ship in the dock low To bring you this ring in an oyster shell
I had the darkest dream, I Can't get my conscience clean of I burned this town to the ground (Oh, that you didn't) Resigned myself to wandering around
I don't wanna wait for a messenger to come Lead us to the great white surface of the sun tonight
And the donkey made through from the bell tower And it came with a raft for the Black Sea And shrouded my heart in a Golden Fleece And I trampled hard coals to a diamond Left from the deck of a ship in the dock low To bring you this ring in an oyster shell
