The Divine Comedy - Motorway To Damascus слова песни
Daybreak on the motorway to DamascusA heavenly angel flagged me downAnd asked for a ride into townFor God`s sake, on the motorway to DamascusThis heavenly angel, wise and pure, proceeded with a guided tour:"Behold! A shining city of silver grey and white,Of solar-panelled rooftops glinting in the lightAnd wind-power generators turning soundlessly through the night" Mid-day on the motorway to DamascusThe heavenly angel flapped its wingsAnd told me more exciting thingsLike how one day this motorway to DamascusWould disappear without trace, the unsustainable replaced"Behold! The new New Forest in four hundred shades of greenStretching out before us where it always should have beenA botanical thesaurus for as far as the eye can see" Nightfall on the motorway to DamascusThe heavenly angel looked at meAnd said "Well, what`s it gonna be?The long haul, or the shorter way to Damascus?Choose with care and you will find that one day there will come a timeWhen the silhouetted ruins of the crumbling cooling towersAre but ivy-clad reminders of a long-forgotten power"Must the monkeys leave Gibraltar`s rock and ravens flee the TowerBefore we look and see ourselves for what we really are?
