Hallelujah Boulevard (Live) feat. Railroad Earth

歌詞

Everything is shiny and surrounded by light Endless rows of halos Like stars in the night Sidewalks paved with diamonds Up on Hallelujah Boulevard He saw it on the TV And it looked so clean Like some enchanted island Like he stepped into a dream Now he's hell bent for glory To get to Hallelujah Boulevard And a soapbox preacher with His busload of faith Fueled by his religion Gonna charge through the gate And he won't slow down till he Gets to Hallelujah Boulevard We don't need a miracle We don't need nothing but ourselves A boy walks the streets when He should be in school Gold chains around his neck But no golden rule He says he'll do what he has to do To get to Hallelujah Boulevard And a homeless junkie knows he's home at last Knows he'll never have to watch Another rich, white man pass And he can see those lights a-shining Up on Hallelujah Boulevard Is that a sword in your side or just a thorn? Do we tear ourselves apart Just to know we're torn So we can grow forlorn? Are we climbing a mountain That's not even there Building a rocket ship that runs On hopes and prayers Trying to leave this world behind In search of Hallelujah Boulevard We don't need a miracle We don't need a miracle We don't need a miracle We don't need nothing but ourselves
