Being Baptised

I can close my eyes

Go back to the start and hear the noise

In the city that the rain tried to destroy

I can walk in the room

And bring the sunshine with me

Bring the darkness down on this town

I woke up singing a song

Words of joy and sounds of sorrow

I woke up soaked to the bone

Was I being drowned or baptised

Praying like an angel

And playing like the devil

I can make you breathe, I can make you cry

My music walks in perfect time

With a freedom that breaks the lie

Of a promise that could never keep its word

I woke up singing a song

Words of joy and sounds of sorrow

I woke up soaked to the bone

Was I being drowned or baptised

I woke up singing a song

Words of joy and sounds of sorrow
