Don't You Want To Thank Someone |
Can’t you feel it in your bones |
Something isn’t right here |
Something that you’ve always known |
But you don’t know why |
'Cause every time the sun goes down |
We face another night here |
Waiting for the world to spin around |
Just to survive |
But when you see the morning sun |
Burning through a silver mist |
Don’t you want to thank someone? |
Don’t you want to thank someone for this? |
Well have you ever wonder why |
In spite of all that’s wrong here |
There’s still so much that goes so right |
And beauty abounds? |
'Cause sometimes when you walk outside |
The air is full of song here |
The thunder rolls and the baby sighs |
And the rain comes down |
And when you see the spring has come |
And it warms you like a mother’s kiss |
Oh don’t you want to thank someone? |
Don’t you want to thank someone for this? |
To thank someone for this? |
Oh don’t you want to thank someone? |
Don’t you want to thank someone for this? |
I used to be a little boy |
As golden as a sunrise |
Breaking over Illinois |
When the corn was tall |
Yeah, but every little boy grows up |
And he’s haunted by the heart that died |
Longing for the world that was |
Before the Fall |
Oh, but then forgiveness comes |
A grace that I cannot resist |
And I just want to thank someone |
I just want to thank someone for this |
Now I can see the world is charged |
It’s glimmering with promises |
Written in a script of stars |
And dripping from prophets' lips |
Oh but still, my thirst is never slaked |
I am hounded by a restlessness |
Eaten by this endless ache |
But still I will give thanks for this |
'Cause I can see it in the seas of wheat |
I can feel it when the horses run |
It’s howling in the snowy peaks |
It’s blazing in the midnight sun |
Oh just behind a veil of wind |
A million angels waiting in the wings |
A swirling storm of cherubim |
Making ready for the Reckoning |
Oh, how long, how long? |
Oh, sing on, sing on |
And when the world is new again |
And the children of the king |
Are ancient in their youth again |
Maybe it’s a better thing |
A better thing |
To be more than merely innocent |
But to be broken then redeemed by love |
Maybe this old world is bent |
But it’s waking up |
And I’m waking up |
'Cause I can hear the voice of one |
He’s crying in the wilderness |
«Make ready for the kingdom come» |
Don’t you want to thank someone for this? |
To thank someone for this? |
Hallelujah, hallelujah |
Hallalujah, hallelujah |
Come back soon |
Come back soon |
