Peter Breinholt - Jubilee lyrics

So we say wake

Get up look around and see


Some days like a jubilee

Some days like a page

From an old pickup book



And then she says

They've taken my sleep again

Those asians are holy men

They come to me night after night after night

Everyone come out from hiding there

Everyone take heart

It'll be a good year

Everyone come home

And linger there

Ohh, whoa I



So go your way

I can see rain come down

I can hear thunder clouds

And I can feel wind on the back of my feet

And then she says

I'm not going to break this time

And I'm not going to shake inside

I'm going to press on for mile after mile



Everyone come out from hiding there

Everyone take heart

It'll be a good year

Everyone come home

And linger there

Ohh, whoa I



So hey down there

You should have them tonight

Shining like stars in the sky

Taking their places before looking in



And then she breaks

She's fallen asleep at last

But I've got a photograph

That I'm going to carry wherever I go

Oh, whoa I



In the spaces that she's known

And she comes, she stays, she goes

And still there are faces, still there are places

She knows
