Icehouse - Sunrise Lyrics
On the edge of the bayA day just like the nextThey gather their netsAnd face their boats aroundOver the rooftopsHear the hum of wingsIn seventeen secondsThe world explodesAnd it buries the night a brave new sunriseWith a sweep of the sword, a blood red sunriseYou'll never see the facesOf the fishermenBut you may see their shadowsBurned against the wallAnd in the temple groundsNew bamboo grows againAs if the heat of the flameHad left no trace at allAnd there's a light in the eastern sky ... sunriseAnd there's no place a man can hide, the sunriseWell, it buries the night, a brave new sunriseWith a sweep of the sword, a blood red sunriseBut in the cool of the eveningWhen the children sleepThe old mountain remembersAnd hangs his head in cloudsAnd there's a light in the eastern sky, yeah, ... sunriseAnd there's no place a man can hide, the sunriseWell, it buries the night, a brave new sunriseWith a sweep of the sword, a blood red ... sunriseSubmitted by Michael Hack
