Glass Hammer

Glass Hammer - Further Up And Further In songtekst

Je score:

Looked for glory in the war

But his spirit longed for more

Cried for something that would last

So he searched for glory past

Scanning tomes of ancient lore

Finding gods from days of yore

So his questing turned from men

Further up and further in

Thus his heart would leap within

Further up and Further in

Closer than he'd ever been

Further up and further in



He could hear it in the songs

That lovers write and singers sing

Something in the writings of

A prophet and a poet king

There was glory to be had

But only on some distant day

When the greatest son of man

The son of God would lead the way

Here was something worthy of

Pursuing and without delay



So the soldier reckoned he had heard from God

Surely God had called him from some lofty realm on high

Off to the temples now

Search Him out

But a snare was planted there

Pleasing to the eye

Priestess, beauty

Show me -- glory

Priestess, beauty

Show me -- glory

Oh my heart finds true love

I'll end my quest for you



Happiness

Did you find it in her arms

Did you sense it in her spirit

Joy like a shadow

Found in her dark embrace



Tell me

Did you promise her the moon

Pledge to her the sunshine

Here on the front line

Where you had fought to free her soul



Where is the warrior

He has lost his sword and

Fallen at the feet of love



Hey now

Did you find that which you longed for

The thing which you called glory

What is the story

Have you forgotten all that you'd learned



Where is the warrior

He has lost his sword and

Fallen at her feet



So she spoke of the hidden things

Elder gods and the fairy kings

That dance in the groves

Bathed in the moonlight they sing

So you had to see for yourself

Now you'll have to admit to yourself

What waited in dusky dales

Were nothing but fairy tales



And to think you nearly had it once

The hope of glory calls to everyone

Each of us

Who yearning

Will listen



Came the time to bid her farewell

Came the time to be rid of her spell

The ways of a warrior

Are seldom forgotten for long



Say good-bye to hearth and home

Heed the call and return to Rome

Take up the sword once more

And sail to some foreign shore
