Hymns from Nineveh A Hazy Vision song lyrics

I close my eyes and I float upstream

receive a hazy vision of all things

I see New York from the wings of an eagle

I see all the eels in the Nile

I see all the people flow through the streets

like tumbleweed

I see a man leaving and leaving

I see the name of a hotel

I see a naked woman lie on a bed in crumpled sheets

uh I see all these things…

I can't wrap my brain around them, cannot understand what they mean

uh I see all these things…

I can't wrap my brain around them, cannot understand what they mean!

I see rainbows beyond rainbows

I see the seeds on a strawberry

I see Copenhagen, Bombay, Barcelona and Aberdeen

I see a girl and I see a boy Isee that they have seen far too much

I see justice and peace sit in a bar doing nothing at all

uh I see all these things...

I can't wrap my brain around them, cannot understand what they mean!

and maybe that's ok?

uh can you understand the

lightheadedness of spring as you can understand algebra

and understand the physics of all things?

I close my eyes and I float upstream

and receive a hazy vision of all things

I see a man write in the sand, I can only see him from behind

I try, but I cannot see what he writes, can't see what he writes

uh I see all these things…

I can't wrap my brain around them, cannot understand what they mean!

and maybe that's ok?

uh can you understand the

lightheadedness of spring as you can understand algebra

and understand the physics of all things?
