Sufjan Stevens Şarkı Sözleri

[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - The Seer's Tower[/h]
 
In the tower above the earth
There is a view that reaches far
Where we see the universe
I see the fire, I see the end

Seven miles above the earth
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85532 ]
There is Emmanuel of mothers
With his sword, with his robe
He comes dividing man from brothers

In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel
In the powers of the earth, we wait until it rips and rips
In the tower above the earth, we built it for Emmanuel
Oh my mother, she betrayed us but my father loved and bathed us

Still I go to the deepest grave
Where I go to sleep alone


 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - The Transfiguration[/h]
 
When He took the three disciples
To the mountainside to pray
His countenance was modified
His clothing was aflame

Two men appeared, Moses and Elijah came
They were at His side
The prophecy, the legislation spoke of
Whenever He would die

Then there came a word
Of what He should accomplish on the day
Then Peter spoke
To make of them a tabernacle place

A cloud appeared in glory as an accolade
They fell on the ground
A voice arrived, the voice of God
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85533 ]
The face of God, covered in a cloud

What He said to them
The voice of God, the most beloved Son
Consider what He says to you
Consider what's to come

The prophecy was put to death
Was put to death and so will the Son
And keep your word, disguise the vision
'Til the time has come

Lost in the cloud, a voice
Have no fear, we draw near
Lost in the cloud, a sign
Son of man, turn your ear

Lost in the cloud, a voice
Lamb of God, we draw near
Lost in the cloud, a sign
Son of man, Son of God
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - The Upper Peninsula[/h]
 
I live in America with a pair of pay less shoes
The upper peninsula and the television news
And I've seen my wife at the K-Mart
In strange ideas we live apart

I live in a trailer home with a snow mobile, my car
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85534 ]
The window is broken out and the interstate is far
I drove all night to find my child
In strange ideas he's been revived

In strange ideas, in stranger times
I've no idea what's right sometimes
I lost my mind, I lost my life
I lost my job, I lost my wife
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - To Be Alone With You[/h]
 
I'd swim across lake Michigan
I'd sell my shoes
I'd give my body to be back again
In the rest of the room

To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you

You gave your body to the lonely
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85542 ]
They took your clothes
You gave up a wife and a family
You gave your goals

To be alone with me
To be alone with me
To be alone with me
You went up on a tree

To be alone with me you went up on the tree

I'll never know the man who loved me
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - Vito's Ordination Song[/h]
 
I always knew you
In your mothers arms
I have called your name
I have an idea

Placed in your mind
To be a better man
I've made a crown for you
Put it in your room

And when the bride groom comes
There will be noise
There will be glad
And a perfect bed

And when you write a poem
I know the words
I know the sounds
Before you write it down
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85535 ]

Only wear your clothes
I wear them too
I wear your shoes
And your jacket too

I always knew you
In your mothers arms
I have called you son
I've made amends

Between father and son
Or if you haven't one
Rest in my arms
Sleep in my bed

There is a design
To what I did and said
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - We Are What You Say[/h]
 
We are a servant, we have a song
The side of a beehive, a tabernacle choir
We are the sound working in wars
The bishop is gone to the acolyte shores

We save our Bibles, we pull our sleeves
The word is a guard and the guard is a cleave
We are the right, we are the stay
The accolade's gone, we are what you say

We have no language, we have no chore
The side of a beehive, the bride is a whore
We are a spite, we are at bay
The spirit is life, we are what you say

We have a sermon, we have a song
The bishop is easy, the bishop is wrong
The spirit is right, the spirit will say
We are a light, we are what you say
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - We Three Kings[/h]
 
Two three four five six

We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we travel so far
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star

Oh, star of wonder, star of might
Star with royal beauty bright
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85537 ]
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light

Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and sacrifice
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Earth to heaven replies

Oh, star of wonder, star of might
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - We Won't Need Legs To Stand[/h]
 
So faithful, so few
So pardon, and done
And when we receive
We give a change at last
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85538 ]

When we are dead, we all have wings
We won't need legs to stand
When we receive
To see a change at last
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - We're Goin' To The Country[/h]
 
If you seek a pillow for your head
Or a fitted sheet for Christmas bed
If you see your shadow on the snow
Is it from the baby Jesus glow?
He's going to the country

Find a tree and put it in your house
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85539 ]
Put a mistletoe upon your mother's blouse
If you see a woman dressed in black
Give her up a song and then ask for it back
We're goin' to the country! We're goin' to the country!
You're mom's going to the country
We're goin' to the country! The country
 
[h=1]Sufjan Stevens - Wordsworth's Ridge[/h]
 
A summer night, I find a boat
Tied to a tree, a normal home
She lost her string and stepping in
I push the shore there, an act of stealth

A troubled glad without a voice
[ kaynak: http://sarki.alternatifim.com/goster.asp?ac=85540 ]
A mountain song, the boat moves on
The water runs on either side
The circle swell, a sudden light takes me

I fix my view upon the ridge
Horizon's eye above the gray sky

I tip my oar to raise the stroke
The wading swan, the image broke
A looming peak, a pirate size
Uprears its head, a sudden guise takes me
