The Only Ones - David Gray

Lyrics by：David Gray/Ben De Vries

Produced by：David Gray/Ben De Vries

Through the doorway in my head

Voice of morning called

I followed where it lead

Swore the oath and so was wed

To the only ones

I traded in my disbelief

Stood with multitudes

And broke the bread of grief

Rode the thermals swam the reef

With the only ones

Scarecrows pulling at their stuffing

Seeing something where there's nothing

Court arise

Try to throw it it ain't sticking

Nerves are frying up like chicken

Put the wool back over our eyes

Great cathedral bell it rang

Draped a jewelled cloth

Upon the bloodied fang

Shut my eyelids tight and sang

For the only ones

The only ones

Scarecrows pulling at their stuffing

Seeing something where there's nothing

Court arise

Try to throw it it ain't sticking

Nerves are frying up like chicken

Put the wool back over our eyes

Mighty headlands coloured rose

Fellow creatures breaking cover to disclose

Time's blood is poetry

Never prose

So say the only ones

At the edge of what is not

Turn the camera round and take a final shot

Of home sweet home yeah this

Pale blue dot

The only ones

The only ones

The only ones

The only ones

The only ones

The only ones
