BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - Swallowed Up lyrics

rate me

I feel asleep on a dark and starlit sea

with nothing but the cloak of god`s mercy over me

i come upon strange earth and a great black cave

We`ve been swallowed up

we`ve been swallowed up

disappeared from this world

we`ve beenswallowed up

The bones of sailors from the north

and sailors from the east

lay high in a pyre in the belly of a beast

a beast should you wander in its

path upon your ship and your flesh he`ll sup

you`ll disappear from this world untill

you`ve been swallowed up

We`ve been swallowed up

we`ve been swallowed up

disappeared from this world

we`ve been swallowed up

we trusted our skills and our good sails

our faith that with god the righteous

in this world prevail

But we`ve been swallowed up

we`ve been swallowed up

disappeared from this world

we`ve been swallowed up

We`ve been swallowed up

we`ve been swallowed up

disappeared from this world

we`ve been swallowed up
