Universal mother

I had a list, a list of lovers
That was as long as the sky is wide
Not long ago I ran for cover
But now I'm back and I wait for the tide
To set me free in stormy waters
Wash me up on barbarian shores
Savage women with godlike daughters
Will save my life and so much, so much more

Watch out loneliness, here I come
Y'see I'm walking on high clouds
I sing my song until the day is done
And the universal mother takes me home
Takes me home

So high aloft in her beautiful riggings
So deep down in her deep blue sea
Halleluja, halleluja to yah
I say my prayer in the sun, in the wind and the sleet

Watch out loneliness, here I come
Y'see I'm walking on high clouds
I sing my song until the day is done
And the universal mother takes me home
My universal mother takes me
Home - where the spirit's high
Home - into a perfect sky
Home - to a warmer scene
Home - to where my crazy head is dreaming music

A red guitar and the head of a dreamer
That's all I got to make it here
I won't complain, I always loved it
It was enough to make you all mine, my dear

Watch out loneliness, here I come
Y'see I'm walking on high clouds
I sing my song until the day is done
And the universal mother takes me home
Watch out loneliness, here I come
Y'see I'm walking on high clouds
I sing my song until the day is done
And the universal mother takes me
Home - where the spirit's high
Home - into a perfect sky
Home - to a warmer scene
Home - where my head is dreaming music
