Afro Celt Sound System – Rise Above It lyrics
Crackin' walls inside my head
With a bottle full of rain
I promised to the coaster
I wouldn't tear it up again
Flick a peanut, break a glass
I wish I didn't sleep at Mass
And everything is closin' up
And yet again I come in last
I saw it in a dream
It was another time
And everything was blue
Everything was fine
And you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
Rise above it, rise above it, rise above it
I see her on the ceiling
She's staring down in her gown
I had to make allowances
Between my love and goin' out
Now everything is closing up
The last call is well asleep
At gigs I danced with a Blue Nun
Now heartburn is goin' cheap
I saw it in a dream
It was another time
Everything was true
Everything sublime
And you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
I saw it in a dream
It was another time
Everything was true
Everything sublime
And you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
Rise above, rise above it
I wouldn't tear it up again
With a bottle full of rain
I promised to the coaster
I wouldn't tear it up again
Flick a peanut, break a glass
I wish I didn't sleep at Mass
And everything is closin' up
And yet again I come in last
I saw it in a dream
It was another time
And everything was blue
Everything was fine
And you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
Rise above it, rise above it, rise above it
I see her on the ceiling
She's staring down in her gown
I had to make allowances
Between my love and goin' out
Now everything is closing up
The last call is well asleep
At gigs I danced with a Blue Nun
Now heartburn is goin' cheap
I saw it in a dream
It was another time
Everything was true
Everything sublime
And you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
I saw it in a dream
It was another time
Everything was true
Everything sublime
And you were always there
And I could see clear
I was always yours
You were always mine
Rise above, rise above it
I wouldn't tear it up again
