Testo One For The Vine - 2007 Remaster - Genesis
Testo della canzone One For The Vine - 2007 Remaster (Genesis), tratta dall'album Wind And Wuthering
Fifty thousand men were sent
To do the will of one
His claim was phrased quite simply
Though he never voiced it loud
"I am he, the chosen one"
In his name they could slaughter
For his name they could die
Many there were believed in him
Still more were sure he lied
But they'd fight the battle on
Then one whose face had died
Fled back up the mountain side
But before the top was made
A misplaced footfall made him stay
The path prepared for him
Off of the mountain
Onto a wilderness of ice
This unexpected vision
Made him stand and shake with fear
But nothing was as fright
Compared with those who saw him appear
Terror filled their minds with awe
Simple were the folk who lived
Upon this frozen plain
So not surprising was their thought
"This is he, God's chosen one
Who's come to save us from
All our oppressors
We shall be kings upon this world"
Follow me
I'll play the game you want me
Until I find a way back home
Follow me
I give you strength beside you
Courage to win your battles
No, no, no
This can't go on
This will be all that I fight for
Let me rest for a while
He walked into a valley
All alone
There he talked with water
And then with the vineThey leave me no choice
I must lead them to glory
Or most likely to death
They traveled 'cross the plateau
Of ice up to its edge
Then they crossed a mountain range
And saw the final plain
Still he urged the people on
Then on a distant slope
He observed one without hope
Flee back up the mountainside
He thought he recognized him
By his walk and by the way he fell
And by the way he stood up
And vanished into air
