TO THE DAYLIGHT

Rain falls on the mountain
Flows down to the sea
That’s how it’s always been
And that how it’s going to be
But it’s alright
Going be a long night

Pedro found the answers
Inside an ancient book
Maggie she stopped looking
And that’s all it really took
But it’s alright
Going be a long night

I do believe it’s true
We’re going to push on through
To the daylight

Jesus said to Buddha
“Man I like your style”
Buddha said to Jesus
“It’s a shame about your trial”
But it’s alright
Going be a long night

We all sit in the docket
Jury gives the news
There’s sadly no escaping
From these melancholy blues
But it’s alright
Going be a long night

I do believe it’s true
We’re going to push on through
To the daylight

Sacrificial virgins
Sacrificial lambs
Everyone’s got problems
No one gives a damn
Out here on this road
It seems we’ve lost our way
Stranded in the desert
With nothing left to say

Everyone’s a prophet
Everyone’s a seer
Confidently speaking
With a pocketful of tears
But it’s alright
Going be a long night

I been to New York City
I been to London Town
I’m going to keep on searching
Till they put me in the ground

But it’s alright
Going be a long night
I do believe it’s true
We’re going to push on through
To the daylight
