Jerusalem ~ by James Blunt



Jerusalem

Text und Musik / lyrics and music by James.Blunt 


All persons concerned
Prepare to bring about
Great pleasure or stimulation

I can hardly control myself, don't know what to say
There's a voice that's calling me from far away
I am no prophet no more than you
But the way these things are coming to me they've got to be true

The people on the street
And the dogs at their feet
Don't know what they're missing
Don't know what they've got in their mind's eye
and I hear

I don't wanna be here. Let's quit this show
Just leave your friends here. They'll never know
I won't fall because we all forgot the line
All scheming elation
All scheming elation

All persons concerned
Prepare to bring about
Great pleasure or stimulation

You can hardly control yourself, you just might die
God's looking down on you so don't be shy
You had your moments, you've done your best
And all the memorable things you've done got to give them a rest

But people on the streets
And the dogs at their feet
They don't even know you
They don't even know your name
And you're here

I don't wanna be here. Let's quit this show
Just leave your friends here. They'll never know
I won't fall because we all forgot the line
All scheming elation
All scheming elation
All scheming elation

Jerusalem
Jerusalem
Jerusalem is here
Goodbye my friend
Take heed the end
Jerusalem is here
