In The House Of Stone And Light (Edit) Lyrics
Martin Page
Lyrics
O Mount Kailas uncover me
Come my restoration
Wash my body clean
I've been walking
Along a crooked path
Where the walls have fallen
Broken me in half
I'm telling you
I will not rest till I lay down my head
I'm gonna go
In the house of stone and light
I shall not cry
For the blind man I leave behind
When I go
In the house of stone and light, yeah
In the house of stone and light
Holy lady
Show me my soul
Tell me of the place
Where I must surely go
Old man waiting
At the gates for me
Give me the wisdom
Give me the key
I'm telling you
I will not rest till I lay down my head
In the house of stone and light
I make my way
Oh, gonna be such a beautiful day
In the house of stone and light
In the house of stone and light
Let me in beneath my skin
In the house of stone and light
It's been too long
My spirit's been at war
Havasupai Shaman
Let me be reborn
And I will embrace
The sun upon my face
Come the day
I awake the child inside
In the house of stone and light
And when I go
I will op', op', open my eyes
In the house of stone and light
I will see you
In the house of stone and light
Looking in beneath my skin
In the house of stone and light
Going inside
In the house of stone and light
(Stone and light)
Looking for the child
In the house of stone and light
(See myself got such a good shelter)
In the house of stone and light
In the house of stone and light
(I'm gonna let this child come washing of water)
In the house of stone and light
(He's speakin' softly to me)
(I must go there, to find my soul, yeah)
In the house of stone and light
(I can see so clearly now)
(I will go there, to find my soul, yeah)
In the house of stone and light
(Well keep on knocking on my door)
(I must go there, to find my soul, yeah)
In the house of stone and light
(I will go there, to find my soul, yeah)
In the house of stone and light
(I must go there, to find my soul, yeah)
