Bruce *****burn - To Raise The Morning Star Lyrics
Rising like lightspill from this sleeping townLike the light in a lover's eyesRising from the hearts of the sleepers all aroundAll those dreamers trying to light the skyBurning -- all night longBurning -- at the gates of dawnSinging -- near and farSinging -- to raise the morning starRising like lightning in the pregnant airIt's electric -- I can feel its mightI can feel it crackling in my nails and hair --Makes me feel like I'm dancing on feet of lightBurning -- all night longBurning -- at the gates of dawnSinging -- near and farSinging -- to raise the morning starSinging for the yellow and the brown and the blackFor the red and the white people, tooDovetailing strong points with the things we lackSinging for the people like me and youBurning -- all night longBurning -- at the gates of dawnSinging -- near and farSinging -- to raise the morning starToronto and Sydney, AustraliaSeptember 1983
