Lyrics Next Year in Jerusalem - Elysian Fields

Next Year in Jerusalem

Leaves are changing
Amber and golden
Tawny and ruby
Copper and gold
What we’ve been braving
Though we were broken
Fall into rivers
Ancient and cold
It’s time to open the keepsake box
Unlocking the seeds we’ve kept sleeping
Sleeping, sleeping
I’m always on the run and I hate copy paste for god’s sake
Next year in Jerusalem
The songs will get written
The world will then listen
Finally to the universe
Trembling and alive
She’s wild like a child
Next year in Jerusalem
Something amazing
The dream we’ve been saving
Next year in Jerusalem
Something amazing
If we are changing
Let it be golden
For we are moving
And melting the snows
If we believe in
All we are holding
Deep as Mariana
The blood through us flows
And it’s time to open the faded books
Softly the words there are speaking
Speaking, speaking
Next year in Jerusalem
The songs will get written
The world will then listen
Finally to the universe
Trembling and alive
She’s wild like a child
Next year in Jerusalem
Bound to take flight
Like a kite by the seaside
Catch me if you can
And she’s waiting to dance
Like you’ve waited to dance
Waiting to dance
Just as the clouds are floating backwards
Back to a sky that holds their face
We are the vapor
On the lip of this flower
And when she opens
We’ll find our place
Next year in Jerusalem
The songs will get written
The world will then listen
Finally to the universe
Trembling and alive
She’s wild like a child
Next year in Jerusalem
Something amazing
The dream we’ve been saving
Next year in Jerusalem
Bound to take flight
Like a kite by the seaside
Catch me if you can
And she’s waiting to dance
Like you’ve waited to dance
Waiting to dance
