7. Jerusalem

(written by Amy Ziff, Alyson Palmer, Elizabeth Ziff, Betsy Hirsch)

half-asleep nights melting into half-awake day
i wish i knew what faith was or how to pray
try and try and try again and try and try 
try to remember what to live for
or die to reason why

you could be my jerusalem
you could be my jerusalem
helping me believe again ooh
teaching me to dream again ooh
you could be
jerusalem

safe in shadows afraid of light
i wish i knew what brave was or how to fight
try and try and try again and try and try
try to remember when love left
or died to reason why

you could be my jerusalem
you could be my jerusalem
helping me believe again ooh
teaching me to dream again ooh
you could be
jerusalem

 

oh oh oh oh oh
every breath you and I have taken

centuries of life in the making

every breath you

every breath you and I

every breath you and I have taken

centuries every breath

centuries every breath

centuries of life in the making

every breath with every breath

you could be my jerusalem 

you could be my jerusalem 

helping me believe again ooh

teaching me to dream again ooh

you could be ooh

i want to believe ooh

i need to believe

jerusalem
