Artist/Band: Midnight Oil
Lyrics for Song: Drums Of Heaven
Lyrics for Album: Earth And Sun And Moon [1993]



By the time the luminous descent of the bright star unfolds

And tablets of strange love are shattered and bruised

By the time the oleander has fallen from bloom

And the tears of the crocodile water the sun



By the time you make up your mind

If ever you do

I hear the drums of heaven too



By the time paradise alley is littered with rust

And the arc of the dayglo is curtained in gloom

By the time the kidney bone cities are crumbling to dust

And the empires and all of the emirates burn



Ice on the mountain

Wind and the dust storm

Sails in the desert

It's old and exploding

Seers and the prophets

Dramas of heaven



By the time you make up your mind

If ever you do

I hear the drums of heaven too
