Babylon Lyrics by Lizzie No

Halfsies

0

Oh I sat down by the river, beside the one I love
We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof
Oh in the midst thereof
We wept when we remembered the place where we came from
Our voices could not rise up singing down in Babylon
Down in Babylon
There were thieves and killers marching through the middle of the town
We knelt and prayed by the unmarked grave where better men lay down
Where better men lay down
My love said, I'm no father call me no man’s son
But take my hand we'll go together up from Babylon
Up from Babylon
We drove out through the desert, saw Moab painted red
We sheltered in some stranger's cave and not a word we said
Not a word we said
Then the devil stood behind us the deep blue sea beyond
So we pressed the gas and we didn’t look back to glance at Babylon
To glance at Babylon
Born on salty water, babies sing new songs
They feel no shame and they feel no pain away from Babylon
Away from Babylon
