Deacon Blue - Bethlehem Begins Lyrics

Tell me once tell me twice how is it that we begin again
Do we start off by clearing up the mess or just forgetting
The way some people try to kid you'd think
We're better off pretending
Just how far can we go without working out the ending
We stayed awake one starry night
Just to watch the sky turn and change and aim...

So suddenly there's no day, no night,
No earth and no horizon
Everything that's wrong's now right
No moon or no sun rising
I can't tell my left from right
There's nothing to keep my eyes on
You got to go back, gotta go back, gotta go back in time
To Bethlehem
To begin again

Sometimes it feels like
The weals of winter won't disappear
So we throw out a rope and hope it gets
To the middle of the year
When we can't tell the land from the sky from the cloud
And nothing's clear I guess a miracle's the only thing
That's ever going to work here
We stayed awake one starry night
Just to watch the sky turn and change and aim...

So suddenly there's no day, no night,
No earth and no horizon
Everything that's wrong's now right
No moon or no sun rising
I can't tell my left from right
There's nothing to keep my eyes on
You got to go back, gotta go back, gotta go back in time
To Bethlehem
To begin again

To Bethlehem
To begin again
To Bethlehem
To begin again

Every step I take will lead me back
Along the broken road

So suddenly there's no day, no night,
No earth and no horizon
Everything that's wrong's now right
No moon or no sun rising
I can't tell my left from right
There's nothing to keep my eyes on
You got to go back, gotta go back, gotta go back in time
To Bethlehem
To begin again
To Bethlehem
To begin again
