The Road To Babylon Songtext

von Manfred Mann'S Earth Band

By the waters, the waters of Babylon
We lay down and wept and wept for these I am
We remember we remember we remember these I am

A golden helmet blinded minds
Among ten thousend swords
Along the road to Babylon
A golden thunder silenced songs
Among ten thousand voices
On the road to Babylon

Well well well, beware that golden helmet
Well well well
There's no easy way to go
Well well well
No easy road to follow
Well well well...

A golden ocean turned to fire
And burned ten thousend ships
Along the road to Babylon
A golden dreamer touched the sky
Alone in empty silence
On the road to Babylon

Well well well
Beware that golden thunder
Well well well
That dreamed and sang the song
Well well well
The empty sound of sorrow
