Feel the Light Songtext

von Justin Vernon

Autumn leaves burning
I can smell the smoke
Colours melt into the canvas
And the wind comes and blows it all away

And the night gets colder
Fire sweeps the heat under the ground
The moon is almost warming us
And there is an absence of sound

Peace on earth tonight
Let the stars shine bright
Let our souls feel high
Come on, feel the light

Sitting here by the shoreline
Seeing those people making the best of their day
And they are everywhere in this city
That's what makes me wanna stay

All I can hear is the cars and the birds singing
And it pulls me to sleep
And I know that this valley that I live in
Will hold me safely in its keep

Rivers run right through me
And the bridges they lay in the land
And I ride in the middle and I feel high
Come on, feel the light

Getting ready to get on an airplane
Cause I got a first class ticket
The light shines through the [?] that I
Get on by plane at last

Above the clouded floor
In my 13-hour flight
The morning when you're flying is night
The dawn and sunrise all at the same time

The orange blanket which is the white clouds below
Blue and black horizon that bruises and glows
And in the middle a single star overhead
Is where resides my fear

Peace on earth tonight
Let those stars shine bright
Let our souls feel high
Come on, feel the light
