A pure heart in me O Lord, A pure heart in me O Lord, How the world went round, and I chased it round, It w as you I found. I walk the same road every day, Don't need the bus, don't need the car, don't need the train, From the Devil's Plain, via the Holy Lane, I walk in fire I walk in rain. It isn't quite as I'd imagined, and everything still feels the same, O the honey may be sweet, all my longing days are fleet, Still I'm lonely just the same. I gathered barley, pruned the vines, I pressed the seed around the clover, Let my neighbor drink in peace While I set about the fleece, While I tended on your lease, O please. It isn't quite as I'd imagined, and everything still feels the same, O the honey may be sweet, all my longing days are fleet, Still I'm lonely just the same. It isn't quite as I'd imagined, and nobody knows my name, Am I the â??long forgotten deadâ?? Put a tablet over my head And remember me no more. Aus Songtexte Mania
