Gerry Rafferty - Metanoia Lyrics
MetanoiaI saw the lightI changed my worldI changed my heartWe sing a song of repentanceA song of joyWe sing a song of repentanceA song of joyMy father's mansion has many roomsBut we all live on the lowest floorDon't even know there is light aboveThis understanding won't do no moreWe sing a song of repentanceWe sing a song of joyWe sing a song of repentanceWe sing a song of joyI was sitting on a barbed wire fenceMetanoia, it made no senseHow many times I should have cried to youNow crying won't do no goodWe sing a song of repentanceWe sing a song of joyWe sing a song of repentanceWe sing a song of joyI saw the river, I've seen the doorI ruled the world, talked to the peopleThey didn't understandThey went walking, yeah they went walkingI saw (I saw the river) the lightI've seen the doorI changed (I ruled the world) my worldTalked to the peopleI changed (they didn't understand) my heartThey went walking, yeah they went walkingMetanoiaMetanoiaCivilisations they come and goFrom ancient Greece down to MexicoThe truth gets lost along the wayWe're still dragging our feet in clay[Fade]We sing a song of repentanceWe sing a song of joyWe sing a song of repentanceWe sing a song of joyMetanoia (metanoia)
