lirik lagu waterboys – long way to the light
i’m sitting in my bedroom
overlooking findh-rn bay
cluny hill in the distance
summer on the way
blue skies and sailing boats
like a picture in a book
i can’t believe i got here
or how long it took
living one step at a time
putting one foot in front of the other
it sure feels right
healing on my mind
been a long way
been a long way to the light
i’d made it to manhattan
built myself a nest
i meant to get right back to doing
exactly what i do best –
plugging in an electric guitar
and leading a band
well… if you want to give god a laugh
tell him your plans!
summer in the city
wilting in the heat
buzzing up and down to bearsville
and back to hudson street
i learned meditation
and how to visualize
just breathing, being still
never felt more alive
living one step at a time
putting one foot in front of the other
it sure feels right
healing on my mind
been a long way
been a long way to the light
i spent the fall in transit
circling the moon
like a cat on a hot tin roof
like a fiddle without a tune
i found what i was searching for
in mrs caddy’s book
i had to go there straightaway
and have myself a look
i flew into scotland
antic-p-tion in my bones
the old country welcoming me
like a prodigal coming home
i knelt and kissed the tarmac
in the wild atlantic rain
felt the fiery gaelic blood
rising in my veins
living one step at a time
putting one foot in front of the other
it sure feels right
healing on my mind
been a long way
been a long way to the light
i spent the night in glasgow
flew to inverness
i found the place and at the first
i was not impressed
n-body said h-llo
the faces left me cold
back then how was i to know
all that would unfold
i entered the sanctuary
heard the voice of a girl
sending out a circle of light
clear across the world
i shuddered in the power
like a seedling in a storm
i’ve been searching for this place
since the moment i was born
i flew back to new york city
singing the big city blues
the sand of findh-rn bay
still clinging to my shoes
i tried to re-start my life
but the life i knew was gone
i had to let go everything
but that’s another song!
living one step at a time
putting one foot in front of the other
it sure feels right
healing on my mind
been a long way
been a long way to the light
so i’m sitting in my bedroom
overlooking findh-rn bay
cluny hill in the distance
summer on the way
i’m watching the sailing boats
bobbing to and fro
time to hit the road
the only way i know…
living one step at a time
putting one foot in front of the other
it sure feels right
healing on my mind
been a long way
been a long way to the light
