Artist/Band: Anouk
Lyrics for Song: Jerusalem
Lyrics for Album: Hotel New York



Sir can you tell me how to get to Jerusalem
'Cause I have kinda lost my way
Sir will you help me get there as fast as I can
Tomorrow might be too late

'Cause things ain't what they used to be
My love for life is gone you see
Am I fighting things I cannot see
People always tellin' me how sweet and simple life could be
They say you might as well live before you die

But one thing I know for sure
I am a danger to myself, how come
Yeah one thing I know for sure
I need some guidance, to get me out of this hellhole

Jerusalem, can you help me find my way back to Jerusalem, yeah

It took me quite a while to get into Jerusalem
'Cause I had kinda lost my way
I want to save me from myself so here I am
I hope it's not too late

'Cause things ain't what they used to be
My love for life is gone you see
Am I fighting things I cannot see
I am so afraid to love
'Cause of the way I've been hurt before
I think by now it's time for me to leave

But one thing I know for sure
I am a danger to myself, how come
Yeah one thing I know for sure
I need some guidance, to get me out of this hellhole

Jerusalem, can you help me find my way back to Jerusalem
Jerusalem, can you help me find what I have lost

Things ain't what they used to be
My love for life is gone you see
Am I fighting things I cannot see
I don't wanna die this way
Wishing that I could turn back time
Wasted time, there is work to be done

But one thing I know for sure
I am a danger to myself, how come
Yeah one thing I know for sure
I need some guidance, to get me out of this hellhole

Jerusalem, can you help me find my way back to Jerusalem
Jerusalem, can you help me find what I have lost, yeah yeah
Alright
