lyrics

POETS ON THE DIVINE

William has written something pretty for
The one he loves them all above
Johnny isn’t scared of dying any more
For as he dies he comes to life
Emily says all the heavens are a bell
And what they toll she knows too well
Dylan has a problem with the dying light
He’s gonna drink until it’s bright

Get high on the words of
Poets on the divine
Get high on the hopes of
Poets on the divine

Rumi had a friend whom he loved very much
Who left one night
And so he writes
Edward has a free, surrealistic touch
May I be I
He prays at night
Tread softly as you walk towards poor William B
Who spreads his dreams beneath your feet
Sylvia, Virginia, Elizabeth
Felt safer in the arms of death

Get lost in the world of
Poets on the divine
Get down to the sound of
Poets on the divine

So get out of here
This empty room
Take the words you need
To lift yourself into the clouds

Get high on the words of
Poets on the divine
Get high on the hopes of
Poets on the divine
Come home to the arms of
Poets on the divine
Go mad for the love of
Poets on the divine
