And as she ushered in the sun
Didn't look like anyone
Like anyone I’d seen
You were from a distant dream
Like something falling from the sky
I could die yeah I could die
But when the angel wakes me up
I feel like a sinners love
A dangerous violent energy
That someones come to set me free
And I know that one is you
You spoke to me you spoke the truth
That truth was everything I need
And everything was you and me
In the photograph I've seen
You were more worthy than the queen
The queen of earth and of the sea
And that old dream could come to life
That old stick could be a knife
And that old world can be renewed
Then suddenly you speeded up
The wind was fresh
The wind was love
And we saw clearly everything
The rain had stopped we sent a dove
And now I know the dove was you
My mind is washed your words are true
That truth was everything I need
And everything was you and me

Now we know this feeling we won't ever let it go,
Now we know this feeling we won't ever let it go,
Give me all you've got,
Give me all you've got,
Give me all you've got,
Give me all you've got.

Everywhere I go,
And everything I do,
It’s like I've been looking,
Looking for you.

I didn't really know,
I didn't really care,
But it’s like you had all the answers,
The who, the when, the where.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained,
The adventure where everything changed,
The world had a way,
Of leading me straight to you.

Anywhere I go,
And anything I do,
Just doesn't come close to how I feel,
When I'm with you.

So I guess that in the end,
It was always meant to be,
I was made for you,
And you were made for me.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained,
The adventure where everything changed,
The world had a way,
Of leading me straight to you.

Golden was the bird I knew,
Sang a song so free then flew,
And they won't come back,
Can't come back.

Golden was the bird long gone,
Sang a little while, flew on,
And they won't come back,
Can't come back.

Yeah, I woke one morning, long time gone,
A magpie’d come to steal away my song,
Was up against the window yeah tapping on the pane,
But it couldn't get in, no, kept calling my name.

Golden was the bird,
And they won't come back.

Verse 1

Well I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee

I'm bound for Louisiana, my own true love for to see

It rained all night the day I left

The weather it was dry

Sun so hot I froze to death

Susanna, don't you cry

Chorus

Oh, Susanna

Don't you cry for me

‘Cause I come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee

Verse 2

I had a dream the other night

When everything was still

I dreamed I saw my girl Susanne

She was coming around the hill

The buckwheat cake was in her mouth

A tear was in her eye

I said I come from Dixie girl

Suzanna, don't you cry

Chorus

Oh, Susanna

Now, don't you cry for me

‘Cause I come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee

Yeah Oh, Susanna

Now, don't you cry for me

‘Cause I come from Alabama with this banjo on my knee
