Song II Lyrics by Gavin Bryars

Adnan Songbook

1996

The sun came in
The pain went out
A window on the lone mountain
I
Became
A tree decrucified
Rendered
To
Its roots
2000 years of suffering redeemed
In a woman’s two-days’
Flight
From paradise to paradise
We went with no mule
Nor train
But with our hands and our eyes
