letra de jerusalem - elliah heifetz

Loading...

somewhere down in palestine
shaded by a linen fine
i saw a woman with a head of hair
stopping time by standing there
and if she was afraid of me
she didn’t ever have to be
nothing could have brought me to begin
she should always be the way she’s been

love is not an easy game
better at times to stay the same
i saw a woman with electric eyes
steals the lightning from the sky
spoons her honey from the comb
she forgets to lock her home
why would i desire to dip my toes?
where she’s gone is where she oughta go

so hallelujah for the gift of silence
thank god that we are who we choose to be
it’s better for the both of us
jerusalem, i’ve left and made my peace

i have heard it many times
take my chances, make her mine
i saw a woman with a mighty swing
tattoos for a wedding ring
all that makes her beauty bright
shimmerin’ in the desert night
withers when i’m waiting by her side
the wave she’s on’s the one she needs to ride

where it takes her i don’t know
galilee or jericho
sand is hotter than the water’s cold
winds awake when evening folds
like moses made it out that nile
she parts my lips into a smile
jerusalem is lost with her here
she’s a backseat driver, you better let her steer

sing hallelujah for the power of patience
thank god that we ain’t what we used to be
it’s better for the both of us
jerusalem, i’ve left and made my peace
