Lyrics
0:13It’s market day when
0:17They bring the flood
0:18Faster than our feet can run
0:24Swarm of angels from above
0:31All is broken, still they come
0:38And round the oak tree
0:42Air is shaking
0:45Children sleep under the sun
0:51And we go down to the river to pray
0:56Pray for magic and another day
0:59But it’s low now, it’s like we’re fading away
1:02Into the dirt of memory
1:05Along the Silk Road
1:09The fires burn
1:11Where the seats of learning stood
1:18And handsome couples
1:22Would take a turn
1:25Through the wealthy neighbourhood
1:31Oh, roll the stone or move the mountain
1:38Wake oh, wake your time has come
1:45And we go down to the river to pray
1:49Pray for magic and another day
1:52But it’s low now
1:54It’s like we’re fading away
1:56Into the dirt of memory
1:58And we go down to the river today
2:02We pray for silence and we pray for grace
2:05But it’s low now
2:07Still you’re rubbing my face
2:09Into the dirt of memory
2:12Ooooooooh
2:26In a shop in Al-Medina
2:33And a house in the old quarter
2:43And I’ll never sleep again
2:52Centuries lived in these stones
2:58I don’t think you know
3:15Oh roll the stone or move the mountain
3:22Wake, oh wake, your time has come
3:28And we go down to the river to pray
3:32Pray for magic and another day
3:35But it’s low now
3:37It’s like we’re fading away
3:39Into the dirt of memory
3:42And we go down to the river today
3:45We pray for silence and we pray for grace
3:49But it’s low now
3:50Still you’re rubbing my face
3:52Into the dirt of memory
It’s market day when They bring the flood Faster than our feet can run Swarm of angels from above All is broken, still they come And round the oak tree Air is shaking Children sleep under the sun And we go down to the river to pray Pray for magic and another day But it’s low now, it’s like we’re fading away Into the dirt of memory Along the Silk Road The fires burn Where the seats of learning stood And handsome couples Would take a turn Through the wealthy neighbourhood Oh, roll the stone or move the mountain Wake oh, wake your time has come And we go down to the river to pray Pray for magic and another day But it’s low now It’s like we’re fading away Into the dirt of memory And we go down to the river today We pray for silence and we pray for grace But it’s low now Still you’re rubbing my face Into the dirt of memory Ooooooooh In a shop in Al-Medina And a house in the old quarter And I’ll never sleep again Centuries lived in these stones I don’t think you know Oh roll the stone or move the mountain Wake, oh wake, your time has come And we go down to the river to pray Pray for magic and another day But it’s low now It’s like we’re fading away Into the dirt of memory And we go down to the river today We pray for silence and we pray for grace But it’s low now Still you’re rubbing my face Into the dirt of memory
