Lyrics for Hurricane Eye by Paul Simon:
| | | Artist: | Paul Simon |
| | Album: | You're The One | | Track: | Hurricane Eye | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 65 | | | | Lyrics: | Tell us all a story
About how it used to be
Make it up and write it down
Just like
history
About goldilocks and the three bears
Nature in the cross hairs
And how we all
ascended
From the deep green sea
When it’s not too hot
Not too cold
Not
too meek
Not too bold
When it’s just right and you have sunlight
Then
we’re home
Finally home
Home in the land of the homeless
Finally
home
Oh what are we going to do
I never did a thing to you
Time peaceful as a
hurricane eye
Peaceful as a hurricane eye
A story of whispers
A shadow of a
horse
Faces painted in flack in sorrow and remorse
White cloud, black crow
Crucifix
and arrow
The oldest silence speak the loudest
Under the deep green sea
When
speech becomes a crime
Silence leads the spirit
Over the bridge of time
Over
the bridge of time
I’m waling with my family
And the road begins to climb
And
it’s oh lord how we going to pray
With crazy angel voices
All night
Until
it’s a new day
Peaceful as a hurricane
Peaceful as a hurricane
Peaceful
as a hurricane eye
Peaceful as a hurricane
Peaceful as a hurricane
Peaceful as a
hurricane eye
Peaceful as a hurricane eye
You want to be a leader?
You want to
change the game?
Turn your back on money
Walk away from fame
You want to be a
missionary?
Got that missionary zeal?
Let a stranger change your life
Hot does it
make you feel?
You want to be a writer
But you don’t know how or when
Find a
quiet place
Use a humble pen
You want to talk talk talk about it
All night
squawk about
The ocean and the atmosphere
Well I’ve been away for a long
time
And it looks like a mess around here
I’ll be away for a long time
So
here’s how the story goes
There was an old woman
Who lived in a shoe
She was
baking a cinnamon pie
She fell asleep in a washing machine
Woke up in a hurricane eye | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
