The Waterboys - On My Way to Heaven lyrics

I fired an arrow made out of will And watched as it flew beyond a green hill I followed its trail with a song in my head The stars for my cieling, the earth for my bed. On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light. My thoughts exploded like flowers in May With the eye of my mind I saw a great day I climbed a dark tower, took it by stealth With every idea I invented myself On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light. In a hungry hour in an unlit land Heard by no ear I made my demands The tables were cleared and the ashes were swept Rome was rebuilt in a day as I slept. On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light. I can still see the bones of the ships of the sun In the slow ebbing tide when the battle was won Afraid of nothing, scared of no man I did not die and I know who I am. On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light On my way to the big light. And no son of Adam, no daughter of Eve Will be able to stop me when I'm ready to leave. All love to the love All flame to the fire All wings to the wind All that lives higher. All love to the love All flame to the fire All wings to the wind All that lives higher. All love to the love All flame to the fire All wings to the wind All that lives higher.
