1000 Years

Auf Der Maur

Under my tongue,
I carry a tune
Deep in the earth,
I can hardly reach 

My mind is humming and buzzing,
It's numbing
When I can't
Get it to you 

This melody is my carpet ride
'Cross the ocean to you and you
Reaching out to you through this tune
'Round the globe just to get it to you 

We've been singing the same song,
For over a thousand years
His death spoke to me,
And her birth sang in perfect harmony 

This melody is my carpet ride
'Cross the ocean to you and you
Reaching out to you through this tune
'Round the globe just to get it to you 

We've been singing the same song,
For over a thousand years
His death spoke to me,
And her birth sang in perfect harmony 

My grave will bring me there,
Deep in the earth,
Singing that same old melody 

Before Adam,
Before Eve,
The lizard sang this melody,
Now it's twisted,
And it's torn
Baffy lines and all you bores
Pick a pack, the troops, it's time
We've got melodies to spin
Come on, bring, leaders and men,
We've got some miracles to spin 

Ooooooh, ooooooh
Ahhhhh, ahhhh
Ahhhhh, ahhhh 

We've been singing the same song,
For over a thousand years
His death spoke to me,
And her birth sang in perfect harmony 

My grave will bring me there
Deep in the earth you'll find me
Singing that same, same, same old melody
Same old melody 

My grave will bring me there 

Ooooooh, ooooooh
Ahhhhh, ahhhh
Ahhhhh, ahhhh
