Testo Anthem - Mavis Staples
Testo della canzone Anthem (Mavis Staples), tratta dall'album Sad and Beautiful World
The birds they sang at the break of day
"Start again," I heard them say
Don't dwell on what has passed away
Or what is yet to be, mm
Ah, the wars they will be fought again
The holy dove, she will be caught again
Bought and sold, and bought again
The dove is never free, hm
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
Oh, the light gets in
I can't run no more with that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up a thundercloud
They're going to hear from me
They're going to hear from me
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in
Oh, the light gets in
You can add up the parts, but you won't have the sum
You can strike up the march, there is no drum
Every heart, every heart to love will come
