Bat for Lashes
Pearl’s Dream
[Verse 1]
There's a place I must go
There's a place I must go
It's not a place I have seen
But I'll get there in a blue dream

[Verse 2]
Down the ocean road
Past a sign that says "Good Love Town"
Into a darkness where the stars do drown
But a star in me needs to be free

[Chorus]
And when the battle was done
I was promised my sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run
And when the battle was done
I was promised my sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run

[Verse 3]
There's a place I must go
There's a place I must go
For my heart is a child
That stumbles lonely for the arms of the wild
[Verse 4]
Hear the desert sigh
Sing the city's lullaby
The giant iris of the wild blue sky
Is showing me the way

[Chorus]
And when the battle was done
I was promised my sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run
And when the battle was done
I was promised my sun
But with a thousand nights gone
To a new kingdom I run

[Outro]
You know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
You know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
You know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
