Ulysses - Josh Garrels

In an endless sea with you Sailing under the rain The only colour of my blues Is made of dust and sand Driftin' It's every day the same Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Until I find you The wind may send me home to you Before the harvest starts again And if the light come shine on through Will you still recall my name? Driftin' It's every day the same Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Until I find you I've been here and almost everywhere I sailed the seven seas while you sat down on your chair You've been good to me And I've been good to you Lost in the hands of gravity Soon I'll get back to blue Driftin' It's every day the same Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Until I found you

Well, I sit and hear sentimental footsteps And then a voice say "Hi, so?" Uh, what you got? What you got this time? Come on, let's get high Come on, Lexxo, what you got next-o? You're walking 25 miles-o? Well, I'm bored, yes, I'm bored C'mon, let's get high Come on, let's get high Come on, let's get high Now, let's get Well, I found a new way I found a new way Come on, don't amuse me I don't need your sympathy La, la la la la Ulysses I'll find a new way Well, I'll find a new way, baby Am I Ulysses?

You thought the leaden winter Would bring you down forever But you rode upon a steamer To the violence of the sun And the colors of the sea Blind your eyes with trembling mermaids And you touch the distant beaches With tales of brave Ulysses How his naked ears were tortured By the sirens sweetly singing For the sparkling waves are calling you To kiss their white-laced lips And you see a girl's brown body Dancing through the turquoise And her footprints make you follow Where the sky loves the sea And when your fingers find her She drowns you in her body Carving deep blue ripples In the tissues of your mind The tiny purple fishes Run laughing through your fingers And you want to take her with you To the hard land of the winter Her name is Aphrodite And she rides a crimson shell And you know you cannot leave her For you touched the distant sands With tales of brave Ulysses How his naked ears were tortured By the sirens sweetly singing The tiny purple fishes Run laughing through your fingers And you want to take her with you To the hard land of the winter

The times are changin' I can feel it in my bones Cause I'm standing on the edge of the other side of all that I've known It's been a long time comin' I take one last breath With my eyes open wide, smilin' up into the skies, it begins with a step For the world awaits Like a mother celebrates A child who's life's begun Step across that line Out into the sunshine O Lord, my time has come I'm gonna run I'm gonna run Strength like a lion burns like fire in my veins Cause I will run and I will not grow weary until I'm face to face I feel the pleasure of my Lord when I'm in stride For the glory of the Lord is man who is completely alive For the world awaits Like a mother celebrates A child who's life's begun Step across that line Out into the sunshine O Lord, my time has come I'm gonna run I'm gonna run

One, two, three I will build my house Whether storm or drought On the rock that does not move I will set my hope In your love, O Lord And Your faithfulness will prove You are steadfast, steadfast You are steadfast, steadfast By the word You spoke All the starry host Are called out by name each night In Your watchful care I will rest secure As You lead me with Your light You are steadfast, steadfast You are steadfast, steadfast I will not trust in the strength of kings On Your promise I will stand I will shout for joy, I will raise my voice Hallelujah to the Lamb! You are steadfast, steadfast You are steadfast, steadfast In the moment of emptiness All was fulfilled In the hour of darkness Your light was revealed In the presence of death Your life was affirmed In the absence of holiness You are still God You are steadfast, steadfast You are steadfast, steadfast
