Roddy Frame - Back to the One lyrics

Words and music by roddy frame Swore I saw my true reflection In the city lights at midnight Fragments of a life led searching Settle in a mess of colour The hills at dawn with your cool dark daughter Gazing down on the glittering water Got a feeling that your favourite son Must've known stone loneliness I see the sea's horizon Bend and sympathise with the blue sky Sun burst and shatter Throw your light across the square Be my guide and take me there Back to the one Shadows scatter Place towers at my feet Lead me down through every street Back to the one Rise and toast the devil in you Feel him catch his stride with angels Chatterin' rails and cracklin' wires Coast to coast deliver love and war Honey from the bay of plenty Soothes the northern voice of anger Crashin' waves 'neath the flash of storm Trash the skies and it must be love I feel my soul's horizons Stretch in sympathy with her smile Sun burst and shatter Throw your light across the square Be my guide and take me there Back to the one Shadows scatter Place towers at my feet Lead me down through every street Back to the one
