Prophets In The Sky lyrics - The Cat Empire

You saw the carnival in Rio

You saw them dancing in the sun

But listen to your corazon

Can you believe you’re always on your own?

You’re like a song without a singer

You’re like a bird without a song

You’re all alone, all alone

And you’re walking down a long and dusty road

All you tricksters and hipsters and prophets in the sky...

Can you imagine

A love like that?

A love like that

This love is older than your father

This love is younger than your son

You feel it in your corazon

And it will be here when everything is gone

And as the night turns into morning

When the fire burns to coal

She whispers in your corazon

Now you know, now you know now you know

All you tricksters and hipsters and prophets in the sky...

Can you imagine

A love like that?

A love like that

You’re lost in the crowd but I know that I’ll find you

The song doesn’t lie

Under the arches of some ancient street

Between the shadow and the light

I know that pair of eyes

And with the summer comes the madness

All your faces in the night

We light our fires on the lawn

And build a temple to save us from the dawn

You can’t have everybody love you

You can’t have sunshine every day

You see her dancing there alone

Then you know, then you know, then you know

All you tricksters and hipsters and prophets in the sky...

Can you imagine

A love like that?

A love like that
