Текст песни Lazarus Man

I met a young man
on a Skeleton coast.
He was on of his feet,
pale as a ghost.
I've asked his name,
he said Lazarus, man.
I come to this country
from a far away land.

I can't quite remember
last time I was on shore.
It could've been twelve years,
could've been more.

I've seen tabulation
that troubled my mind.
I can't quite remember
what I come here to find.

And it's wind on the ocean,
rain on the land.
Three drops of water,
one grain of sand.
I'll tell you this story
as quick as I can.
I got nothing but time,
I'm Lazarus, man.

He said "I woke up one morning,
felt a little bit strange,
by mid afternoon
there was fever and pain.
Later that night
with my friends on my side
I went after to sleep
and I guess that I died,
I was stumbling and rising
so I couldn't quite tell
one foot in glory
and one foot in hell.
on one side of garden
and on one side of flame,
I thought I heard somebody
call out my name.
Yeah, somebody was saying
"Lazarus, arise!".
I set up,
opened my eyes.
You know I wanted to dance,
but I didn't have room.
So I threw off the sheets,
walked down out the tomb

And it's wind on the ocean,
rain on the land.
Three drops of water,
one grain of sand.
I'll tell you this story
as quick as I can.
I got nothing but time,
I'm Lazarus, man.

I've been from Lazarus
To Higher Barbaree
And I realized
There is no rest for me
I've been out on the desert
I've been out on the beach
but since he has been arised
I'm in a sleep

And it's wind on the ocean,
rain on the land.
Three drops of water,
one grain of sand.
I'll tell you this story
as quick as I can.
I got nothing but time,
I'm Lazarus, man.

I met a young man
on a Skeleton coast.
He was on of his feet,
pale as a ghost.
I've asked his name,
he said Lazarus, man.
I come to this country
from a far away land.

And it's wind on the ocean,
rain on the land.
Three drops of water,
one grain of sand.
I'll tell you this story
as quick as I can.
I got nothing but time,
I'm Lazarus, man.
