The Waterboys, Spirit (Full Version - Remastered 2004)



                man gets tired

spirit don't

 man surrenders

 spirit won't

man crawls

spirit flies

spirit lives

when man dies

 man seems

 spirit is

 man dreams

spirit lives

man is tethered

spirit is free

what spirit is man can be

now

we tread the fresh fields,

the higher grounds and the summer slopes

that man may someday climb on

now we tread the fresh fields

the higher ground and the summer slopes

that man may someday climb on

we're on the heels of Rimbaud

 we are in the swing

 chandelier-like dancing

and we feel everything

 high on the wine of life

high on the wine of life

 untethered and free

untethered and free

what spirit is man can be
