Lyrics
0:01Let him come into the city
0:03Let him find his lucky penny
0:05Let him put it in his pocket
0:08And shake it all around
0:24I've been to pretty buildings all in search of you
0:31I have lit all the candles sat in all the pews
0:40The desert had been done before
0:45But I didn't even care
0:50I got sand in both my shoes and scorpions in my hair
0:59I saw that
1:00Oh the distance is not do-able
1:06In these bodies of clay my brother
1:10Oh the distance it makes me uncomfortable
1:16Guess it's natural to feel this way
1:23Oh let's hold out for something sweeter
1:28Spread your wings and fly
1:35My car became the church and I
1:40The worshipper of silence there
1:44In a moment peace came over me
1:56And the one who was beatin' my heart appeared and
2:00Oh the distance is not do-able
2:02In these bodies of clay my brother
2:05Oh the distance it makes me uncomfortable
2:07Guess it's natural to feel this way
2:23Oh are we locked in to these bodies
2:30Let's hold out for something sweeter
2:45Spread your wings and fly
2:57Oh are we locked into these bodies
2:59Are we anything at all
3:00Let's hold out for something sweeter
3:00Spread your wings and fly
3:00This distance is dreamin'
3:00We're already there tonight
3:00Let him come into the city
3:09Let him find his lucky penny
3:10Let him put it in his pocket
3:12And shake it all around
3:14Let him come into the city
3:15Let him find his lucky penny
3:16Let him put it in his pocket
3:18And shake it all around
3:19Let him come into the city
3:19Let him find his lucky penny
3:23Let him put it in his pocket
3:25And shake it all around
3:28Let him come into the city
3:30Let him find his lucky penny
3:33Let him put it in his pocket
3:46And shake it all around
Let him come into the city Let him find his lucky penny Let him put it in his pocket And shake it all around I've been to pretty buildings all in search of you I have lit all the candles sat in all the pews The desert had been done before But I didn't even care I got sand in both my shoes and scorpions in my hair I saw that Oh the distance is not do-able In these bodies of clay my brother Oh the distance it makes me uncomfortable Guess it's natural to feel this way Oh let's hold out for something sweeter Spread your wings and fly My car became the church and I The worshipper of silence there In a moment peace came over me And the one who was beatin' my heart appeared and Oh the distance is not do-able In these bodies of clay my brother Oh the distance it makes me uncomfortable Guess it's natural to feel this way Oh are we locked in to these bodies Let's hold out for something sweeter Spread your wings and fly Oh are we locked into these bodies Are we anything at all Let's hold out for something sweeter Spread your wings and fly This distance is dreamin' We're already there tonight Let him come into the city Let him find his lucky penny Let him put it in his pocket And shake it all around Let him come into the city Let him find his lucky penny Let him put it in his pocket And shake it all around Let him come into the city Let him find his lucky penny Let him put it in his pocket And shake it all around Let him come into the city Let him find his lucky penny Let him put it in his pocket And shake it all around
