Madeleine Peyroux Somethin' Grand lyrics

Wide awake, breath taken
I'm shaken by my sight
Couldn't sleep, couldn't keep
Quiet secrets on the wind I hear

There's something grand comin', cool drummin'
Through my empty city
On a night breeze so free, lovers must collide
And the morning sun must rise, all's forgiven

Cool your heads highwaymen
Come what may, men who run and fight
Here's your drink, time to think
Soon you're wandering away your fears


There's somethin' grand comin', cool strummin'
Through my empty city
Till the morning breaks and weary eyes are clear
Let the dream of sleep take troubles far away from here

There's somethin' grand comin', cool strummin'
Through my empty city
Till a new day breaks and weary eyes are clear
Let the dream of sleep take troubles far away from here

All's forgiven
