Lyrics
Jah bless you all.
And Jah bless blue skies and better mornings.
Shades and shapes like oleander fall on every shore.
Do you believe in ghosts?
I do.
Why wouldn?t you?
Do you believe in ghosts?
I do.
Why wouldn?t you?
Give us a queen and make her wonderful,
full of life and always sure to leave the nightlight on for her children in bed.
We are her children instead of all the politics, a look at modern man without the instruments and colored filters.
But a fire getting fed by a cold noreaster wind, lights my back and shows me where I?ve been.
And I ask my brother, ?in a world of such complexity, why?s out counting system based on ten??
Because it?s ten that rules the world, ten that rates the girl,
when she needs some reassurance in her day.
And it?s ten that pays the bills,
a thousand or a million hungry eyes stare through a T.V. screen in Africa.
But the meaning and the truth is when two arms are clasped in unity, ten fingers bridge the gap from me to you.
And it?s a handshake or a prayer, an understanding of the afterlife,
it?s the blessing that I give to you.
Jah bless you all.
And Jah bless blue skies and better mornings.
Shades and shapes like oleander fall on every shore.
Do you believe in ghosts?
I do.
Why wouldn?t you?
Do you believe in ghosts?
I do.
Why wouldn?t you?
