Gloria Record The Miserere Lyrics

Miserere Lyrics

A disconcerting way to wake: to find everything in place

the world goes on without my faith in anything

to have to drag myself from bed, pull a sweater over my head 

(somehow find a way to brave the sun again). 

And all of this just as I was beginning to have the most amazing dream. 

They rolled the stones away 

and let everyone come right in and say hello to me. 

They picked me up and held me there 

and smiled at my crumpled wings. 

And all of this just as I was beginning to have the most amazing dream. 

And when you go to sleep at night, don't you ever feel the weight 

of all the things that make you happy;

that float around you, pull you down? 

And don't you ever want to stand up on the waves and run?
