Tim Cohen - Go Seagull Lyrics

I hear footsteps on my roof at night
Two, if I'm not mistook
And they go walking side by side
Just off, into the night

I can hear my lover breathing
and her heart beating hard in her chest
and I can feel my shadow sleeping next to the bed

Woah Woah

There are fingerprints on the window
in the shape of a strangers guise
and he will see you before you do

I can hear my lover breathing
and her heart beating hard in her chest
and I can feel my shadow sleeping next to the nest

Woah Woah

Go seagull,
won't you fly to the mosque
born to glide on your wings through the fire and fog
Go seagull
paint him white on the cross
nobody died for my sins no one died for yours
why you messing with the power?

I hear footsteps on my roof at night
dude, if I'm not messed up
And they go walking side by side
Just off, into the night
can hear my lover breathing
and her heart beating hard in her chest
and I can feel my shadow sleeping next to the nest

Go seagull
won't you fly to the mosque
born to glide on the wind through the fire and fog
Go seagull
paint him white on the cross
nobody died for my sins no one died for yours
Why you messing with the power?
Why are you messing with the power?
Why are you messing with the power?

Walk right down the line
walk right down the line
you gotta walk right down the line
walk right down the line.

It took me so long to get my hand around a bible.

Lord, it took me so long to get my hands around a rifle
